How it feels

A calm, mouse-only idle factory sim where you methodically build and connect nodes while relaxing into the slow progress toward a simple goal.

What players say

Players are split on Nodes. Many praise it as a chilled, simplified factory game with an engaging node system and a developer who quickly fixes bugs. Others find the text illegible, the UI buggy (keys stop working, no escape button), and wish the game had launched as Early Access. The game is short, around 10 hours, with no offline progress.
