The most up-voted negative English reviews in our sample, quoted as written.

“8 months with no updates or news, most of the previous updates talk about the dev team and new members but don't talk about the game. The actual stories way too short, if you're looking for a fun building game, look into ScrapMechanic.”

“There are a lot of things right with this game, but it still need a little work. Some more controls for custom mode is needed to make this truly a sandbox game, like the a way of choosing whether the player has any recipes or not and then…”
