I love the SteamWorld setting, love city builders, and loved Lego Rock Raiders, so I assumed this game would be perfect for me. The aesthetics of the game are great but nothing about the gameplay got its hooks into me like other city builders have.
The above ground gameplay feels a bit weak, with basically no challenge. You need to have different types of workers close to an increasing number of services. That's as complex as it really gets. It really could have done with events effecting the city.
The underground part of the game has a bit more meat to it, combining exploration with factory building. However the late game mostly consists of waves of enemies which pose no threat.
