What players say

Players praise Orb of Creation as a highly engaging active incremental that demands constant attention, with deep interconnected systems and satisfying build crafting. However, many are split on the 1.0 release, saying it added grind, removed tools from early access, and introduced a prestige mechanic that some feel is forced, while the lack of a respec option frustrates those who hit a dead end.
