    Best game ever. It changed my life for good. Even minigames of it are induvidual masterpieces.

    I don't play it anymore cause I am scared my life will flash before my eyes. This is one of those games that you start and you completely forget what time it is, truly something that very few games are able to achieve.

    One of the best games I have played. I spent at 100 hours before beating it. I hope they create an expansion so I can get back into it

    the game can be very addicting and is mostly fun, however, it can get repetitive.

    One of the most amazing games every created. A simple game that is so much more than it seems.

    Fantastic game. Well worth the playtime invested in the game. Never felt like I wasted time playing. Its also sandbox so it allows variety and replayability which many games lack.Beginning, Middle, and Endgame all great. Never mind the cringe spam negative reviews, actual gamers don't care about politics. We just want good games.

    Just text (crutch) to save the game to the list. Such things. Maybe I'll do a review later.

    Ideal to lose 90 hours a day somehow and learn how to rape a planet with machines and so on. it's incredible.

    This is the number 1 greatest game of all time. 10/10 would be an insult to how mind-blowing this game is. all the negative reviews are just Russians review bombing.

    Tak gra naprawdę wciąga! Za pierwszym podejściem co prawda nie przebrnąłem przez podstawy, ale ostatnio zabrałem się za nią na nowo i już mam kilkaset godzin za sobą :-) ciągle jest coś co jeszcze można zoptymalizować

From its insanely impressive and consistent performance, to its incredible depth and variety in its systems, Factorio (and its eventual expansions) is something i cannot recommend enough. Sure it is not for everyone, if you didn't like playing modded minecraft when you were younger, you probably won't enjoy this, and thats okay; but if you found even the slightest bit of fun in that gameplay loop, you will find something to love in this game.… Expand

    This game is nearly perfect. The only thing you have a lack of is plot. It would help to believe in game's world.

    Si Factorio était un morceau de musique, il lui faudrait tout un orchestre. Car Factorio est l’apothéose du jeu d’usine et de création de base, et à moins de quatre-vingts musiciens, on ne rendrait pas justice à la profondeur vertigineuse de son contenu. Il faudrait aussi que tous les instrumentistes soient des virtuoses, car Factorio sonne juste du début à la fin, sans aucune fausse note.Si Factorio était un morceau de musique, il lui faudrait tout un orchestre.

    It being one of the few games of this kind, with its characteristic style and gameplay loop, make this an essential game for people who really like climate cha... i mean, automation

    Gameplay is well optimized and interesting almost through all parts of the game.

The main gameplay is in building your base to produce some technological stuff, to build a bigger base that can produce more technological stuff. Sounds simple, but you will create your own little factory with a power plant by yourself, developers give us a lot of different types of items and buildings, which you can manipulate, and optimize for building some unstoppable production.

    You will solve big problems in your factory such as: optimizing your resource delivery conveyor or delivering iron ore by trains, creating fire turrets for defense, or enriching uranium for a nuclear reactor.
    Sounds really hard to do and boring, but the game makes you feel fun from these problems and make you happy when you find some genius way to use standard things better.

    And this game fit well for a lot of kinds of players, from hardcore one to some lazy people which just want to chill after work. Also if you get bored from the main side of gameplay you can make a tank or car with a machine gun and just drive a little outside your base and kill some biters. And it will also help you in the main part of the game because you will spend less time defending your base from attacks.

    Nice optimization and interesting mechanic with pollution and biters adding into your game another side of gameplay, the part which is interesting too but not so interesting as the main part of gameplay, because we don't have a lot of weapon types and some parts are not so effective for battle as you think when you collect resources to produce them. But you can find a lot of opportunities using buildings for your battle. Actually, they probably were made without any thinking to use them in the battle directly, but it's great that you can use them effectively in it so that it will open a big window for different manipulations.

    One problematic time period was when my base had already grown up a little and my base was almost like spaghetti. So it was a little boring to rebuild all this stuff. So it's the biggest problem of the game.

    A little disappointing is the ending, I think they can make more tools for the end game era to let players feel like a god.

    And also I can mark one thing: the game world is endless so you can't get some happiness from your in-game tasks such as: killing all biters, researching the whole planet and etc. It looks like a good point for multiplayer or for some experienced players but I don't think so for new players it's good too.

    Anyway, it's a great and unique game, so I recommend it for purchase.

    My overall score is 8.5/10    … Expand

    11/10. This game is a drug. Please don't play it, it's addictive.

    Jokes aside, this game is the most fun I've had in ages. You can program basically everything. The lore, atmosphere, difficulty is just on point. It's like minecraft in a foreign planet.

    A very good game in which you can get stuck for many hours. The developers have tried and made something cool. Building these logistic chicks is fun, but it might not be for everyone. The graphics match the game, there shouldn't be anything better or prettier. This is even more difficult for a small indie studio. But it doesn't matter, the game is just as good.

    Шеееедевраааальная игра. В ней все отлично, махеника, геймплей, а главное всё своими руками делаешь! Хоть и графика ничего такая, но на удивление всё красиво прорисованно!

    Exciting construction and management sim with great gameplay flow. It does require a lot of imagination and thought. Caution: addictive!

    This is a jewel. An unbelievably clever, thought-out, detailed, balanced, fun, brilliantly designed masterpiece that really doesn’t have any drawbacks at all. If you like to build and optimize, you simply have to play Factorio.

    Factorio is dauntingly complex, but offers almost endlessly enjoyable depth for optimizers and survival fans if you take the time to learn its systems.
