    Nova Lands is an engrossing supply chain management game that can be tough to put down. As is typical for the genre on consoles, there are some minor quality of life frustrations, but it’s an easy game to recommend despite that. For newcomers to this sort of game, Nova Lands might be the perfect starting point, while genre enthusiasts can expect to spend many hours building and optimizing.

    Oh, my goodness, let me tell you how blown away I am by this game! Seriously, you need to drop everything and get your hands on it right now.Oh, my goodness, let me tell you how blown away I am by this game! Seriously, you need to drop everything and get your hands on it right now. Trust me, I could go on and on for a whopping 50+ hours about how amazing it is, but I don't want to spoil any surprises for you.

    Just take my word for it — this game is an absolute must-play. I guarantee you won't regret it. And let me tell you, I'm certainly not regretting a single moment of it. At one point, I was a bit down because I thought it was reaching its conclusion, but lo and behold, something incredible happened that completely changed the game for me.

    I want to extend a heartfelt thank you to the developers for creating such a masterpiece.    … Expand

It would haveThe gameplay of this farming-style game is highly addictive. The automation mechanics are straightforward and simple to grasp. It would have been more enjoyable if there were larger areas or additional islands, even if they maintained the same themes. In summary, this game provides a relaxed experience where you gather, construct, and enhance various elements. The gameplay loop is incredibly gratifying.… Expand

Pero desgraciadamente el resultado es unEl juego parte de una idea que podría ser interesante, fusionar Forager y (en menor medida) factorio. Pero desgraciadamente el resultado es un pequeño juego en el que tendremos que luchar contra el inventario y los baúles durante el 95% del juego.

    El sistema de almacenamiento es tan desagradable y atrasado, que el resto de factores dan igual. Un ejemplo es que NO podremos almacenar directamente del inventario al cofre, tendremos que abrirlo, bajar 3 veces, seleccionar el objeto y pulsar un botón... así todo el rato.
    Ojo, y además de todo esto, SOLO se pueden apilar 100 unidades en los escasos 4 huecos de los cofres... hay que ser memo para diseñarlo así de mal.

    Además, lo limitado de nuestra mochila hace el avance pesado. Se te quitan las ganas de visitar islas o hacer las escasas misiones.

    Solo con el enorme problema de gestión, el juego ya no vale la pena en absoluto, pero a esto hay que sumarle: Un estúpido sistema de oxigeno que te hace regresar sin motivo cada pocos segundos. Un movimiento desesperadamente lento. Un sistema de combate de principios de los 90.
    Nulas mecánicas de "calidad de vida" que faciliten muchas tareas. Una gestión de Drones poco trabajada. Etc.

    Lo pongo un 2 por que me dio 2 horas de juego antes de mandarlo a la papelera.    … Expand
