I've played this game a bit. Definitely one of the best factory builders out there. It's not just about logistics, there's tower defense and giant lasers to fuel, and the one thing I feel that all factory builders need, it's a REASON for building the super massive factory. Logistics are fun, but logistics for a purpose give me the fuzzies. Eagerly looking forward to FC2.

Honestly such an underrated game. among all the amazing and fun content the thing I want to focus on in my review is the sound. This game has shown me just how much good audio can enhance a game. Once you get even a small factory, much less a large one, going it sounds amazing. Could legit sit in the middle of one, close my eyes, and just listen for hours. DJArcus has truly gone above and beyond. Then there's the actual gameplay; simply phenomenal. every single texture is amazing, the multiblocks are INSANE, especially the BIG BOI ones. Used to play this all the time years ago when I had more time to play, but I always find my way back here from time to time because I just love it so much. (most my hours are on my old account which is long gone)

I have never reviewed a game before so bear with me. I really enjoy this game. I picked it up in 2018 after seeing it featured on Direwolf20 video I stumbled on. The combination of logistics, factories, exploration, and tower defense appeals to me. I have never gotten super far progression wise compared to others, but that's just how I play. I tend to get side tracked exploring or hyper focused on one thing. If I step away from FCE for a time I usually restart with a new world when I come back. The same is true for just about any game I play. I like the logistics of moving x to y. That could mean extracting coal nearby to fuel power generation for some local ore extraction or using lasers to beam that power to distant operations underground. Now I have all this ore I need to smelt. If it's near surface conveyors are great for lateral movement with a bit of up and down. If it's a bit deeper you need to protect them with turrets. When you need to go deeper cargo lifts are your friend to get the goods to the top. Once you have all these materials up top, the freight system is there if you want to deploy a rail network to really move things around where you need it. From there I get to layout factories or assembly lines to process ore/materials into more advanced parts as I progress. As I my operations expand and production/power use increases so does my threat. The level of threat determines the size and scope of the waves of bug attacks. The better defense I setup the longer I can survive the waves. It's fun to see how long I can make it or when I'm not paying attention and trigger a spike only to watch as my base gets stomped. I like that the only repercussion of losing is waiting a few minutes for the CPH to reboot. Not long after getting FCE I began following it's Discord channel and I lurked in there ever since. There are plenty of people on including the developer that will help out new or old players with tips/tricks/advice about playing FCE. I am eagerly awaiting the release of FortressCraftEvolved: Phoenix.

It's hard to get started in FortressCraft Evolved, but it's fun once you do. The challenge isn't so much learning to perform basic tasks, but learning how all the pieces go together. Online resources are must to this end.

Probably one of the best base builder games out there, the underground exploration in this game makes me come back to it year after year.
