    Craftlings successfully rediscovers genre-bending mechanics and systems to deliver a puzzle-strategy adventure that doesn’t reinvent the wheel but feels thoroughly polished and focused.

    Craftlings smartly reimagines Lemmings as a deep, systems-driven city builder, blending classic Settlers-style production chains with clever automation and logistics. Minor control quirks aside, it’s a thoughtful, nostalgic, and surprisingly long-lasting strategy game driven by a clear single-developer vision.

    Craftlings lets you turn a small team into an efficient workforce that constructs amazing things. By guiding your team, you work your long-term planning muscles and see your vision become a reality. It’s not easy to master and you will make several mistakes along the way. But if automated building is something you like, don’t pass this game up.

    Craftlings is charming in many ways, from its retro style to its complex systems. However, it can be pretty frustrating to learn how everything works.
