Great game, good mechanics, fun and quite innovative as a fusion of rts and factory sim, 10/10
This is one of the few RTS games that I have plaid and I really like this one. This game has a lot of content and stages to do. No bloat. Difficulty increases the longer you play. Progress is nice and simple to learn, because you unlock things one by one. The visuals and audio is nice, controls are smooth and simple. Also takes very little room on the disc!
peak If you like Factorio you'll probably like this game just as much.
Mindustry is a fun and addictive tower defense game with a light Factorio vibe. I first played the classic version back in 2019 and it’s crazy how much the game has evolved since then. Anuken is a goated dev and deserves massive credit. Easily one of the best examples of how a game can grow and improve over time.
Very fun and addicting.
I started on mobile and ended up purchasing on steam because I liked it so much and wanted to see the beta updates. They're great btw! I had already stubbornly figured out a lot of things on the mobile version on my own but this version is much more new user friendly for sure. I also love that there's mods for the distant future when I run out of stuff to do with the core content. This is going to be my obsession for a while. It's awesome when I find a game that scratches an itch I didn't even know I had. This game has opened up an entire genre for me to check out later 1000/10 highly recommend
I only really half recommend this game because the 6.0 update kinda ruined the game for me. I only played it for that dumb fun tower defence gameplay, but i feel this was changed post 6.0, you can however go back and play 5.0 which is very fun
Fantastic, addicting game. Aesthetically pleasing, when you assemble things in a more organized fashion which is another great part of the game. There is always multiple ways to go about doing stuff.
I've played this on and off for a couple years and I still enjoy it.
