    Really boring, this game is like raft. Everything you do is collecting loot, to build something, to collect more loot. It could be interesting, but game requires too much loot to collect, despite it`s very rare.

    I expected more from this game, promising trailer and unique gameplay but in this state boring and a real grind ! There is no real advanced gameplay present.

    I literally made this account just so I could spread the word on how offensively boring this game is. Might as well start with the good because it's a short list.

    Pros: -Cool concept, if not unoriginal, it's basically the game Raft on a train going through the void -Great visuals -Sound and music is good with pretty cool voice acting Cons: -The grind, jesus ***** ****** *******    I literally made this account just so I could spread the word on how offensively boring this game is. Might as well start with the good because it's a short list.

    Pros:
    -Cool concept, if not unoriginal, it's basically the game Raft on a train going through the void
    -Great visuals
    -Sound and music is good with pretty cool voice acting

    Cons:
    -The grind, jesus ***** ****** ******* ******************* ***** the ********* ********* ****** grind. I have been playing for 3 hours, I've jumped off the stupid train cart 100 times, grabbed 500 pieces of floating debree, smelted 70+ ingots, gone through 6 tiers of tech trees, do you want to know what I've been unlocking? MORE COMPONENTS TO CRAFT. The only things you unlock are more things to smelt or craft but none of it is equipment or anything remotely standing close to fun. You unlock bolts, gears, springs, acids, YOU DO NOTHING WITH ANY OF THIS BESIDES CRAFT MORE COMPONENTS. You unlock food and health, GREAT, nothing has damaged my health though so WHATS THE POINT. Finally, after 3 hours I unlock a stupid grappling hook that doesn't even grapple onto the environment, Oh no, you have to then craft these asinine rings that you then throw to grapple onto. But guess what, they cost ore to craft and their throwing mechanics are horrible so you end up wasting half of them.

    This game had such amazing potential and then did nothing with it for the first 5 hours of gameplay. Listen, I've seen the videos, I'm sure if I grind for 10 more hours I'll get to the giant fish and pirate fights, but at this point, I've lost all interest in ever turning this game on again.

    In case the devs actually see this (because I'll be d***** if I can find a way to contact them besides twiter) here are some actual tips.

    -Just start with the grapple for gods sake. Don't make your players grind for 2+ hours before even getting one piece of moderately fun equipment
    -Don't make us need rings. It just adds more grind to the UNGODLY amount of already exsisting grind. Nothing brings fun gameplay to a screeching halt like having to search for 10 minutes for scraps to continue exploring
    -Within 2 tech trees, give the players some kind of magnetic grabber or something to reach things easier. Chasing things down is fun but after 2 hours it's incredibly f****** boring.
    -Make resources more abundant of make recipes cheaper. I get there are docks or whatever, nobody cares, instead of 1 metal scrap floating by itself, put 3. I know you might feel the need to pad game time but this is ruining your game.
    -YOU HAVE TOO MANY COMPONENTS. Buds there are like 5 things to craft in early game (all of which are storage or crafting tables) and yet there are like 15 components. If you want Factorio, create more automation.    … Expand

    The game is an endless grind of gathering scraps in space.
    Every aspect of the game is tedious and after 3-4 hours I couldn't feel any progress anymore. Everything in this game is either boring to do, gathering, combat, inventory, research system or even just crafting things.

    This game really is like Raft, but on a "train". Same mechanics, same story, same everything....

    There are some minor issues, but Voidtrain is an adventure that you should experience.

    It’s hard not to be taken in by the allure of driving a train through infinite space. Maintaining, expanding, and improving your locomotive never gets old, especially as the rails unfurl into the cosmos. Voidtrain can certainly hook you with its premise and well-made crafting systems. However, it’s held back by repetition in everything outside the train, from the overly similar station layouts to the one-note arenas. A diamond in the rough, then, but one that’s still worth the ticket price for fans of the genre.

    Voidtrain offers an incredibly satisfying gameplay loop, rich progression systems, a compelling art style, and a story that, while far from sophisticated is intriguing enough to keep you invested from beginning to end. In many ways, Voidtrain is the quintessential AA game, and players interested in a more casual approach to survival gaming should definitely take the time to step into the void.
