There is no tech tree, and not that many buildings and workers, but somehow they are combined in a way that gives you many options and so we have a game quite easy to learn but still with plenty of strategic decisions. On top of that, the overall atmosphere is lovely.

It falls short on building variations and overstocks you on alot of supplies..you will be building a TON of warehouses to get 300 population. The ai needs improvement as they are starving and right next to a stocked food machine, yet wont eat. If you can get this game on sale like I did for I think about $10, its worth it to add to your collection. Maybe the devs. can adjust the AI and add some more diversity to the buildings. At least it doesnt have Denuvo and asking $40. I can recommend on a sale, even the $20 isnt as bad as some games with as low of content ask.

I like aspects of Planetbase, and I want to like all of it because it’s a nice premise, but it’s really hard to look past its frustrating aspects. The slow pace of expansion can make it a relaxing game to play, but when those frustrations creep in it wipes out any chance of relaxing. In a world where Cities: Skylines exists as such an excellent city-builder on Xbox One, Planetbase suffers in comparison. Going from landing party to self-sufficiency to thriving extra-terrestrial metropolis is a pleasing arc, but at times the game conspires against your efforts to play it.

TBH, I think this is a game that requires a certain type of player. First and foremost, you need to crave a challenge. Too many people fail aTBH, I think this is a game that requires a certain type of player. First and foremost, you need to crave a challenge. Too many people fail a few times and give up on a game. A good example of this is Dark Souls... either you love it or you quit before the first boss. If you love Dark Souls and also love strategy games, you'll love this game. Patience is also absolutely required. If you build quickly, you're toast. Another thing... manage your landing permissions very carefully. Good luck!
