Full Story Campaign
‘Techtonica’ is the only factory automation game to offer a complete, fully voice-acted campaign to play through. Something unknown awaits you beneath the surface of Calyx, Groundbreaker. Untangle and revive the efforts of an expedition gone wrong with the help of cubic companions who have motives, personalities, and secrets of their own.

At first i did not want to recommend this game, it felt very different when i tried the demo. and there is a lot of conflicting infomation/voice lines/issues which are very clear the dev team ran into while trying to improve and change things over time. that being said, im now 25 hours in and still have some time to go and ive been playing casually. at the sale price of 13 dollars ive got my money worth. ive also only reached one "gamebreaking" bug which was me getting stuck behind a panel that i had to use the unstuck for one single time. im not gonna complain

This and every other Pro feature is free until October 20, 2026. A free account is all it takes.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 22 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 9 places towards #1, and the 2,513 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

하루종일 걸어다니고 자동화해도 큰 기쁨이 없는 게임. 와중에 디스코드 커뮤니티는 디립따 키워놓고 LGBT 관련 플래그만 존나 꽂아놓더니 뜬금없이 미완성품으로 정출 때리고 업데이트 유기한뒤 런~ 해버린 게임. 내가 팩토리오 하다가 졸아본적은 없어도 이 게임은 하다가 졸았음
Не понятно за что ругают игру. Приятная графика, красивая атмосфера, много небольших уровней для строительства, а не одна овер гигантская карта где один конвейер может быть длиной в несколько тысяч блоков, но этих уровней хватает, копать никто не запрещал XD Куча рецептов, как стандартных так и альтернативных. Сюжет присутствует и он не плох, по сравнению с другими схожими играми он шикарен, тут хотя бы есть еще персонажи, которые всегда с тобой (не шизофрения! ни в коем случае XD), а не только ГГ. Понравилось решение с ядрами для прокачки исследований. Да и получением энергии после 12-го яруса тоже интересно получилось) А теперь минусы. Нет руководства по крафту, что из чего и главное где можно сделать (но это просто для удобства нужно или у к кому пришел склероз в 25-30 лет). Проблема с дробилками, сильно сажают ФПС, когда забиваются ресурсами, благо есть мод который это фиксит. Откачка сезамита тоже вызывает вопросы, особенно на уровне "Лаборатория". Вот прям фу фу фу такими быть! Энд гейм затянули, ну вот прям сильно затянули. Хотя по сравнению с Факторио это сказка, а не энд гейм) Ну и мелкие баги, косяки и недоработки, в принципе как и у всех игр) А в целом игрушка интересная, есть над чем подумать, ресурсов очень много.
very fun automation game. building and planning in this game just feels right. exited to play the new full release
Jeu banger, un des plus complet parmi la liste des jeux d'automatisations, mais de loin celui qui a la fin la plus désastreuse, et le mode multi est désastreux pour le joueur invité. Les recettes partent dans tout les sens, ça en devient n'importe quoi, et les 4 derniers étages ne servent à rien, c'est juste chiant et long à crever. J'ai adoré une grande majorité du jeu, mais la fin est tellement naze que si je pouvais donner une note entre 1 et 5 étoiles, j'aurais trouvé une manière d'en mettre 0.
Like the normal person i am, i broke the tutorial :3
Интересный сюжет где хрен как пойми мы бурим шахту снизу вверх. Лифт работает хрен пойми как, вот со второго на первый можно отправить, с восьмого забрать груз с первого не пойму как, манипулятор ставит крест и все, типо на каждый этаж отдельно отправляй, бред. Настройки производства по умолчанию Х5 должны быть, а то их 100+ часов что красуется на странице магазина просто трата времени.
Крутая игруха, странно что так много негатива. Играю в коопе. Любителя факторки должно зайти.
If you like factory builders, then this game is for you. Building can get complicated and you regularly unlock recipes that have you rebuilding your production lines constantly to take advantage of the new tech. If you like Satisfactory, then you are probably going to like this game too.
