What players say

Players say the simulation depth is debated, some find the reactor physics poor and plant design unrealistic, while others enjoy the chaos and engineering nerd appeal. The tutorial is widely criticized as confusing, and there are reports that some achievements are unobtainable because their scenarios were removed. Performance is inconsistent, with some noting low FPS even on high-end settings.
