Early Access Review's Goal of the Game is to build a Civilization, taking Into account that the World's Climate does not spiral out of Control. There are now several Ways to address this. It starts with a City center on a Planet. In addition to this City centre, other Parts of the City will have to be built during the course of the game, so that the individual Areas can benefit from each other and a City upgrade to the next Level is possible. As a result, more Residents are possible. The Challenge here, of course, is that they in turn need Food, Goods and Electricity and consume more and more as they grow in the population. Now, of course, depending on the natural Conditions of the Planet, We need to build Farms, Forestry or build Power Plants, for Example, so that these Resources can be mined and breastfed. At the same time, it is up to everyone to decide whether they prefer to act economically and rely on Wind farms, or instead prefer to dismantle the next Coal leader with a Power Plant. There are many different Buildings for each Area or Resource. Among other Types of Biogas power Plants that benefit from Farms and Forests, Factories that increase Freight production, Fishing, oil Platforms, Livestock farming, or wind Farms for Energy production and Much more. Of course, everything here has its pros and Cons. Wind Farms are not as Polluting as power Plants, for Example, but they do not produce as much Energy. Forestry Benefits for the most part only from large and sufficient Forests, Farms need Fertile Land, etc. This means that you also have to pay special Attention to the Quality of The soil and the Environment. A Wind Farm is more productive on Coasts, due to wind strength, Nuclear Power Plants lower the Satisfaction of surrounding Citizens should it be built too close to the urban Areas. There is a Bonus on the Quarry when it is built right next to a Stone Deposit. So We have to pay attention to the rural Conditions here. Resources can shrink and be used up, so that a Power Plant no longer yields as much after some Time, as the Coal leaders are Depleted. There are also rare Resources, such as Gold or Ideon, that can be mined. All these Resources can be resold to the intergalactic Space traders for Bares by means of a Spaceport, but should be stored accordingly before that. The individual Buildings can be improved with many Upgrades. Of course, gene plants Breeding costs money and carries an accelerated risk Of pollution to the Soil and the Environment, but in the End more Food can be provided for its Inhabitants. So Those who pay attention to their Environment and do not exaggerate it with the Factories, Power Plants or the Clearing of Forests, spare the Environment and prevent a Climate Collapse and the End for their Civilization and the Planet. If the Measure is reached, at the latest at 100% close And the Planet was broken. The Player will also have to expect various Natural Disasters during the Course of the game. Among other things: Meteorites, Wildfires, Tornadoes or rising Sea Levels. Depending on how much the World's Climate is burdened by Pollution. The Effects: Global Warming, Melting of Polar caps, etc. Natives and Temples can also be discovered on the Planets. They can then interact accordingly, such as acting or freeing up the Forces in the Temples, so that you can let forest fires rage or make Soils fertile. There are different Modes, such as the Campaign with different Missions per Planet, where one is guided Through game piece by Piece, a Kind of Tutorial. The other Planets are becoming more difficult and challenging by the Difficulty and scope of the Mission. Furthermore, there is an Endless game where you can also equip Against up to 3 Computer players around the Bet, a Sandbox mode with the Chance of creating your own Planet and a Contest Mode where you can deal with Players from all Over the world or even against your own (Steam) Friends Can measure. Ergo: Who has the best High Score. This is quite motivating to see how the other Players have taken off on the Planet and what Conditions You could or could not meet. Depending on that, that turns out to the High Score at the End. I highly recommend the Game and look forward to more Features and Content, which I hope will be coming in the Future. The Game has a lot of potential on any given basis and it has been great Fun for me so far to build my Civilization with the Consideration of not breaking the Planet too badly.
