What you actually do

Build factories by hand in a huge 3D world: conveyor belts, foundations, trains and pipes. Unlock new tiers by delivering parts to a space elevator.

Who will love it

Builders who like big views and are happy to fiddle with foundations for an hour.

Building in 3D

Belts climb walls and factories become towers. Planning height is a new layer of thinking for factory fans.

Co-op

Up to four can build together. One person designing and others gathering works well.

Calm settings

Advanced settings let you turn off enemies or free up building costs for a creative experience.

Plus

  • Beautiful world
  • Co-op building
  • Satisfying scale

Minus

  • PC only
  • Late game needs serious planning

Bottom line

The most beautiful factory game, and the best one to build with friends.
