The Crust

总的来说还是好玩的，但采矿必须九格才能放下矿机然后矿点大小又经常不够两个九格真是太蠢了 ______ 打到后期总结——“快跑！” 结局需要的物资庞大到离谱，完全就是指数级的，拖得天长地久。 卖货完全得手动，缺少一个和远征基地以及自动停机坪联动的仓库，无限卡传送带。 后续升级的配方消耗不但没优化反而负提升，费尽心思弄半天结果还不如保持原本的生产线。

Improvements have been made, however not enough. A lot of things are unbalanced and half the endgame feels pointless. Perfomance has improved a lot, I will give them that. Will wait until 1.0 to see if I change this review, for now is not worth it

The Crust ist ein Aufbau- und Managementspiel mit Fokus auf eine Mondkolonie – und genau das macht es interessant. Du steuerst ein Unternehmen, das auf dem Mond Ressourcen abbaut und verarbeitet. Dabei geht es nicht nur um simples „Bauen“, sondern um ein relativ tiefes System aus: Automatisierung (Förderbänder, Drohnen, Produktionsketten) Ressourcenmanagement (Energie, Rohstoffe, Versorgung) Wirtschaft (Handel mit der Erde, Verträge, Expansion) Technologieentwicklung (Upgrades, effizientere Abläufe) Was das Spiel stark macht, ist die Mischung aus: ruhigem Aufbau-Gameplay strategischen Entscheidungen und dieser leicht „realistischen“ Sci-Fi-Atmosphäre Es fühlt sich ein bisschen an wie eine Kombination aus Factorio und einer Wirtschaftssimulation im Weltraum – nur entschleunigter und visueller.

Game looks pretty, runs stable and story/voice acting is good enough to keep you engaged and I have finished it. However: [list] [*]design has huge holes, it feels as if the game has never been properly play-tested. Techs that make no sense, structure "upgrades" that are less efficient than lower tiers. [*]incredible micro management needed for optimal play: [list] [*]for sending big contracts, you have to click multiple times over and over to queue multiple transports [*]huge lists of trucks to scroll and find the one that is idle [*]need to constantly keep checking contracts or prices in multiple submenus to be optimal [*]silly way to "locate" new veins - you need to scan with narrow cones and rebuild scanners in new places [*]silly way to scan planet (single use small area "satellites" or rovers which have to stop and do scan) + no way to filter map for specific anomalies or view He3 map [*]unruly colonists picking least optimal jobs for themselves [/list] [*]huge waiting time for endgame missions, where ships have to travel across solar system. Even on max speed and top tier HW (AMD 9950 + RTX 5090) I just left my PC running for many hours of real-time to wait for delivery to arrive.. [/list] Tha game just does not vallue your time!

The Crust — это игра для тех, кто любит сложные, многогранные симуляторы, где успех — это результат продуманной стратегии, оптимизации и внимания к деталям. Она не пытается быть простой и дружелюбной к каждому, но щедро вознаграждает тех, кто готов разбираться в механиках и искать лучшие решения. 400 часов — это серьёзный срок, и если ты остался доволен, значит, игра смогла предложить достаточно глубины и вариативности, чтобы не наскучить.

Game contains AI generated content without disclosure that does not become clear until after several hours (this includes art but I also suspect much of the dialogue is AI generated). Had it been disclosed (which it should have been) I would not have purchased it.

Задумка не плохая но игра совершенно не сбалонсированна одних ресурсов надо много других деть некуда да и постоянный поиск подземных источников он просто вымораживает .... Игра сырая ждем релиза
