Theme and concept is the best thing about this game. Becoming planet-wide AI is great. I appreciate that music changes depending on zoom level - ambient/atmospheric in orbit, only to have more robotic/electric tracks when you zoom in on factories.

 

It's no Factorio. Strategic aspect is minimal, to a point where it becomes more of an idle game than anything else.

 

It can get quite grindy, so I recommend playing on easy, even if you can sequence break certain events.

Finished it twice already, first before Green Mars dlc, and second after. Just love the pace and flow of gameplay and slow increasing of scale and size of tasks to solve. Generally very comfortable and relaxing resource management strategy game.
