    I love the idea, which has a lot of potential. Overall the game is really very shallow.

    This game has a lot of potential. There's a period of grinding that feels a bit long. Then once you get some automation the game progresses very fast and you end up completing the campaign in a blink. 4-6 hours of game play. A bit pricey for the amount of game play available currently. If you want to complete the game to 100% steam unlock - there's a lot of grinding to get there.
