How it feels
You start as a hands-on farmer and gradually build an automated farm where machines do the work, letting you focus on optimization and logistics.

What players say
Players describe it as a chill, bite-sized automation game without danger, built around a shrinking mechanic that makes factories take less space. Progress slows down exponentially as you wait for resources, and there is a dirt duplication exploit. Reviews split on the endgame pacing.
