    Overall impressions

    What can I say about this game. Well I love the original trailer of the game. I have backed it up and I was able to play since the beginning. I fell in love with my nuggets , I loved playing it . Just looked at my world , my nuggets , my powers and my buildings.. I was one happy Nugget Lover. Then more buildings came , more promisses , more fluff. Still no Idea    Overall impressions

    What can I say about this game. Well I love the original trailer of the game. I have backed it up and I was able to play since the beginning.

    I fell in love with my nuggets , I loved playing it . Just looked at my world , my nuggets , my powers and my buildings.. I was one happy Nugget Lover.

    Then more buildings came , more promisses , more fluff. Still no Idea when they would start to implement the features they promised on their trailer.. Still not able to advance to the next age.. Only thing that was happening that was with all the new updates , you were forced to play the game from the start over and over again. This was my main reason I did not install the game anymore.

    Pro and Con's for Universim

    So here are my pro's and Cons of this game

    Pro :

    - Love the original kickstarter Idea
    - Love the fact to play god to my nuggets
    - Love the graphics
    - Love some of the powers.

    Con's

    - No way to see what era you are.
    - The game is progressing to slow
    - The quest system is not fun to do . It really doesnot want me to take the quests
    - To many updates with only adding fluff and other stuff. Nothing like the trailer
    - Always have to start over again when there was a new update.

    Extra Info about the game's state after the Experimental Patch of early feb 2019

    Based on the effort the DEV's make , I will give them the benifit of the doubt. The passion and will that they put out for this game is commanding.

    This game is made with passion , also I think and believe they want the game to make us all happy.

    The patch addiditions to the game , makes the game less of a citybuilder now. Now you can use your Nuggets to make them do things automaticly. They used to built only their huts automaticly and they choose a new research if you do not have one selected , but now they also can built other buildings depending on the needs of the people. GREAT Improvement.

    This is beginning to look more and more like the game I want to see. So :

    Do you recommend this game in the current state

    My answers is yes , The Dev's show their intentions more and more , the game begins to shape up. They are listening to the community , they provide feedback and they love to interact with people (like me) to learn what players Miss.

    Thumbs Up for the DEV's. This game has a long road ahead. But this is the state the original STEAM EARLY ACCESS should have been.    … Expand

    I am a god among nuggets. I like this.
    The game is addictive in how the nuggets keep breeding & small nudges in the right direction can make or break a civilization.
    The mini-quests are fun & the visual progress is satisfying whether you run it at a normal relaxing pace or crank it up.

    I've been playing this game for over two years now, and what I can tell you is I've never burned out on it. It feels epic in scope, yet entirely accessible and relaxing. The graphics will can be stunning at times, with your bustling little city slowly expanding around the globe. More and more content is added monthly and the devs keep making it smoother to play.

    Played 16 hours in the first 2 days. A really fun and addictive game which has endless potential.

    Not exactly what i expected. I was expecting a god simulator, and the game turned out to be some kind of RTS, only with a little bit of divine intervention gameplay. Quite boring

    задумка - классная, техническая реализация - говно.
    примерно с момента открытия обработки дерева и камня человечки начинают дико тупить и ничего не делать. не работают, здания не строят, не чинят, занимаются хрен знает чем. найти кого-то на свое рабочем месте надо еще постараться, все куда-то идут и бездельничают.
    строишь новое здание - ресурсы к нему не доставляются, а если и    задумка - классная, техническая реализация - говно.
    примерно с момента открытия обработки дерева и камня человечки начинают дико тупить и ничего не делать. не работают, здания не строят, не чинят, занимаются хрен знает чем. найти кого-то на свое рабочем месте надо еще постараться, все куда-то идут и бездельничают.
    строишь новое здание - ресурсы к нему не доставляются, а если и доставляются, то не все. здания могут годами стоять недостроенными. и если необработанные дерево и камень можно собственноручно кинуть на стройку, и тогда может быть строители придут его строить (а может багануть и строители не будут назначаться, тогда только сносить здание и строить заново), то с обработанными материалами, которые хранятся на складе, не сделаешь ничего.
    улучшаешь здание - также годами может стоять в ожидании ресурсов.
    и это при том что свободных рабочих несколько десятков, а на складах целая куча ресурсов. никто просто ничего не делает.
    конкретные примеры.
    1. стоят водяные помпы. с горем пополам построилось несколько зданий, потребление воды превысило добычу. лето. запасы воды быстро уходят. заказываю улучшение помп и строю пару новых. на пару помп принесли часть ресурсов и всё, дальше ничего делать никто даже не шевелится. наступает зима, вода кончается. с горем пополам к весне строят одну новую и улучшают одну старую. запасы медленно пополняются. наступает следующая зима, запасы воды быстро кончаются, помпы так и стоят нетронутые. 5 десятков рабочих и сотни единиц ресурсов на складах. 12/10.
    2. процентов 80 поселения покрыты в 2-4 слоя ремонтниками, потому что один пост не справляется со всеми зданиями в своем радиусе. 2-4 поста справляются отлично. но примерно с момента открытия обработки дерева и камня нсправляться перестают, только и успевай вручную латать. 10 минут назад ремонтников хватало, проблем вообще не было, а теперь не хватает, когда количество зданий в радиусе осталось такое же или увеличилось максимум на парочку. а новых ремонтников попробуй построй еще. 12/10
    зато жилища строятся, ага. ну как строятся, точно так же могут годами недостроенными стоять, но туда иногда хотя бы ресурсы доставляются.
    а еще место для жилищ просто гениально выбирается. вот есть огромное длинное озеро через треть планеты. на одном берегу твое поселение. и тут этот гениальный ии решает строить жилища на другом берегу. человечки начинают бегать буквально через половину планеты к новым стройкам, которые стоят долгими-долгими годами.
    про пропорции лучше вообще молчать. аэропорт размером с континент - просто идиотизм.    … Expand

    The Universim starts off great and then flattens out to the point of boredom.

    The Universim is a beautiful real time strategy game mixing city building with divine intervention. As a brand new take on the empire building gameplay of your stereotypical 4x gameplay, you'll focus less on military, and more on evolution and adaptability. Fight not only other civilizations, but also the environment itself; all the while trying to maintain a clean planet free of disease and pollution. As a stand alone title, The Universim has a lot to offer; and undoubtedly more to be expected from this beautiful bombshell of a game!
