Industrial Tetris
The focus is more on squeezing the buildings into small areas than delivering products.

A mess that was no fun to play
I know it's still in-dev, so maybe there's some hope for it yet, but at its present stage, it's simply no fun to play. I couldn't even bring myself to finish the tutorial, I loved Industry Giant 2, so I suppose I had high hopes of this game. Suffice it to say, they were not met. One of the things I loved about Industry Giant 2 was its structure, which is something that's missing from this game. Everything, starting from the placement of the buildings in this game and culminating with the construction of roads and railroads feels just so wonky. And the user interface is not very good either. Whereas Industry Giant 2 was a well-designed and polished machine that just worked, and where all the parts fit neatly together, this here just seems like a big ball of mud. So if you enjoyed Industry Giant 2, do yourself a favor and play another game of that instead of this one.

Very fun and challenging
I like the challenge, it was fun to learn and figure out and optimize my city and industry. My only critique is the TRAINS, its so frustrating trying to figure them out or why they are not working. which is like 50% of the time

fun, but still buggy
To start with the positives: The overall gameplay balance feels fair yet challenging, and the production chains make sense. Visually, the game is quite appealing. There’s something almost meditative about watching your trains roll through the landscape, a bit like a model railway from childhood days. But it's still far from finished. The game crashes frequently, and the graphics stutter noticeably. There's no planning mode for roads or rails. Once you click, the section is placed, and if the route doesn't fit (which happens often due to curve or elevation limits), you have to remove it again. The money spent is gone, and you'll only get back a fraction of your original investment. And then there's that thing I hesitate to call AI, it's more like Artificial Dementia. The pathfinding and the algorithms supposedly managing logistics behave oddly, far from being sophisticated or even reliably usable. It's quite common to see an entire fleet of trucks leaving the depot, each picking up a tiny amount of a resource, when a single truck could easily carry the full load. Naturally, those trucks are then unavailable for other transport tasks. Sometimes, routes are ignored completely for no apparent reason, leaving goods to pile up at waypoints. Tweaking route parameters doesn't help. Occasionally, changing the depot assignment does - if you're lucky. There's no way to manually reschedule the internal queue or anything of that sort. Trains, on the other hand, work fine as long as your rail network consists of just three or four factories in a line. But once the network becomes even slightly more complex, the pathfinding starts acting up. Trains take massive detours to reach their destinations. Or sometimes just stop for no reason, blocking the tracks. Maybe it’s simulating a mandatory coffee break. These issues are quite problematic for a game that's all about building and fine-tuning production chains and logistics. It's hard to enjoy that aspect when the game keeps working against your efforts. Although the "1" in the version number still feels a bit premature, there's reason to stay optimistic. With a few solid updates to fix the existing bugs, improve performance, and polish usability, this game could easily reach its full potential. But for now, I could give only two stars. PS: I had to revise my rating. The developer stated, that this game won't get any improvements or new functionality. So this game was released in an unfinished state and then effectively abandoned. Don't pay money for it. Grab it as a giveaway, as it is still quite some fun to play, if you ignore all those drawbacks. It's a pity. It's wasted potential.
