As much as I'd like to praise a game made in my country, I have to say NO and give it the thumbs down. Don't get me wrong - the concept and the setting are great here as well as simple yet enjoyable management mechanics. The turn-based system is an advantage too as it allows you to play the game at a measured pace and meticulously manage your resources and plan ahead. It would seem like a perfect city builder for me. However, the time (turn) limit needed to accomplish your mission and, most importantly, randomised terraforming sets negate all your efforts and plans, thus turning your run into a rushed mess. Basically, you are forced to rely on sort of RNG and luck rather than careful planning, which results in frequent failures. Due to such constraints, you cannot build a colony you want - you only have to build a colony the game lets you. Constantly dissatisfied and whining (for no reason) citizens are also so irritating.

+1 免费序章 没中文 没成就 远星者:序章 在正式登陆火星之前,亲身规划、建造并管理资源,体验打造一座成功殖民地所需的一切。在复杂地形上规划布局、建造基地,并利用专业工具对地球进行地形改造,以满足殖民需求。证明你有能力执行星际殖民任务,毕竟,熟能生巧。 建造水泵、在沃土开垦农场、利用太阳能、开采稀有矿物,为未来殖民者打造宜居栖息地。合理节约资源,搭建电缆与管道,将整个殖民地连为一体。 通过回合制操作选择地形改造套件,改造地貌为殖民地创造优势。需要水源?将水滴地块放置在峡谷中,周边平地即可变为沃土。需要适合建造风力发电机的地形?使用改造套件隆起山脉,提升能源产量。 地形改造地块拥有固定形状,放置位置需谨慎:若将水滴地块放在平地而非峡谷,可能会形成冰层。谨慎决策,提前规划。 游戏采用程序化地图生成,每次开局地图均不相同,峡谷、山脉与崎岖地貌将持续带来全新挑战。 核心玩法(精简版) 火星殖民前置模拟:在地球规划建造、资源管理、地形改造 建造水循环、农场、能源、采矿设施,搭建管线电网 回合制地形改造:用专属套件造水源、开沃土、塑山脉 地块放置有地形限制,需策略规划,避免改造失误 随机生成地图,每次都有全新地貌与挑战
"Farlanders: Prologue" Farlanders: Prologue is not a game. It's an advertisement for a product called "Farlanders". Farlanders is Farlanders itself is a somewhat limited and mediocre 2D retro pixel city builder (but on Mars), which makes no sense because you can take a look at games like Cities Skylines and see the PC is capable of much better graphics... and to have this advertisement for it polluting Steam isn't doing gamers any favours. But this isn't completely relevant because this is not Farlanders, it's just an advertisment for it, so it's not correct to try to review that completely distinct product. We must instead review this for what it is... an advertisement. If you enjoy advertisements, you can consume them for free on the web or on Youtube without needing to add them to your game library, download them, and then launch the advertising. It's impossible in a general sense to recommend people should do that over playing real, full games on Steam, and that applies here with "Farlanders: Prologue" too. This is only free in the same way that adverts on Youtube and banner ads in your browser are. This is a game demo that's been dumped on Steam to advertise another Steam store page in the hopes of raking in some cash. Just because advertisements are free, doesn't mean they're worth your time. It's important to understand there's a formal process to create a demo/page for a game which hasn't been followed here: https://partner.steamgames.com/doc/store/application/demos While it might seem like an inocuous mistake, publishing demos and advertisements as if they are full games is misleading and in some ways harmful. This advertisement is taking up marketing space and visibility that would be better made available to a developer that's done the right thing and created a full game. Instead, that visibility is given over to a demo/advert that's been published incorrectly and is polluting the marketplace. It's unclear if this mistake was made through incompetence or a deliberate intent to mislead gamers. Often developers may choose to incorrectly publish demo/advertisements as separate games as a cheap way to bypass paying Valve for marketing presence on the Steam front page, which may seem clever to them, but it's harmful behaviour and it's not good for gamers. Bearing in mind that free games don't add +1 to your game collector count, should you bother adding this to your library and downloading it? Nope. This isn't worth downloading. While this didn't cost me any money up front, I still feel ripped off.
https://youtu.be/JH9jVuKFDTU Sufficiently deep prologue will introduce players into the game concepts and mechanics in this increasingly tricky mars themed strategy/puzzle game.
randomizing everything make it very difficult to even success each chapter mission. I can<t count how many time I got maps full of holes or mount with little to no space that is buildable. with a 12 resource limit until you get to a mineral node. I had to waste 10 or 20 turn to get those nodes. I loved the concept but having everything randomized and hard for no reason doesn<t make it a good game
Ich kann diese DEMO nur weiterempfehlen! Wer ein pixliges Strategiespiel sucht und noch nicht weiß, ob Farlanders die richtige Wahl ist, für den ist diese DEMO das perfekte!
Tetris? ets not about "development" its about "tetris-terra-forming" Плюсы + :для демки я таки потратил норм времени Минусы - Cons Нельзя сделать приоритет занимаемой работы поселенцами и не понимаешь почему они не хотят делать еду и сидят на заводе. (Ручками завод выключай.) Citzens prefer work on factory instead of making food to survive.
怎么说呢,这不是个基地建设类的游戏,其实是个解谜类的游戏。用有限的资源在规定的回合数内完成指定目标。如果随机因素不利,或者规划错误浪费了资源,可能就失败了。而且玩了一下试玩版觉得还有点难。不过还挺好玩的。
