    Played it a bunch in alpha a few years ago. Game is released and still has most of the old bugs I ran into all those years ago, some of which I even personally reported on the forums. Very laggy after a few minutes of gameplay. AI is still unresponsive and slow. What a pathetic "grab the cash and run" attempt this turned out to be.

    Clockwork Empires is an interesting premise heavily weighed down by its unfinished feel. Too many bugs, crashes, and unintuitive gameplay options make it hard to recommend in its current state. If all the glitches are ironed out, I’m eager to see what emerges.

    Clockwork Empires has a lot of promise but numerous technical issues and a baffling UI, not to mention disappointing use of the steampunk aesthetic, make the game a frustrating and tedious experience.

    If I was to make a game that I didn’t want anyone to actually play, it would look a lot like Clockwork Empires.
