The game is not perfect but it definitely is fun. It is (IMO) worth the 20$ or so it asks for. I enjoyed a lot setting up production pipelines and upgrading my workshop to meet goals, deadlines and optimizing for flow, space and cost. The variety of products is decent, and the art style is adorable. The game becomes a bit repetitive after a while and it would definitely benefit having a sort of campaign mode instead of just a sandbox-style mode, even though for a sandbox unlocking of new tech is satisfying. I have two pet peeves with the game: The first is... the lack of control over the actions of each employee is typical in some of these management games, however, I felt sometimes frustrated by the AI decision making. Choosing to go around the workshop to drop something just because in a straight line it was closer. Not going to pick up stuff from the delivery truck even though the truck has 99 employees allocated to it. etc As for the second, the game tries to imply that the best thing for your workshop is to be sure you keep all employees as busy as possible. But then, the challenges are about lean time. This incoherence was kinda weird (Plus the fact that you do not control the actions of your employees makes them just not work continuously on the same workshop because reasons) Overall it was a nice experience, one that I could play while watching some TV show at the same time.
