The Universim

Dead ant. Dead ant. Dead annnnnnnnt This game is dead like you just squished an ant. Even the modding community is dead

they promised the world. and delivered the bare minimum that is unenjoyable for more than 3 hours. stay clear and be beware of this developer.

Поиграв в игру 17 часов я могу заявить: я жалею о покупке и потраченном времени. 1. Игра скучная (настоящий разнообразные контент заканчивается через час-два игры) 2. Игра отвратительно оптимизирована 3. NPC глупые, их ИИ совершенно нулевой 4. Большая часть игры состоит из ожидания, когда создастся новый ресурс 5. Постоянно что-то ломается, но это вызывает не интерес, а раздражение 6. Диктор на фоне сначала много рассказывает, но затем умолкает - ему просто не о чем рассказывать Не покупайте. Потратите деньги и время (а возможно и нервы) по-настоящему впустую

Начал развивать поселение. Дожил до 6 человек! 4 мужика и 2 бабы! Прилетело НЛО, забрало одну бабу, вторая скончалась от болезни. В поселении осталось 4 мужика! Геи радуются, но человечеству пришел конец! 10 геев из 10

Dont BUY! might seem enticing but gets boring fast its basicaly an afk sim

Don't know if the reviews are botted or just mindless drones (so the usual), but the game is fully abandoned, not updated for two years. Avoid, if you're looking for a game with updates.

TL;DR: I can recommend this game, especially if you catch it on sale. There are many things I liked and only a few I didn't, so the overall balance is definitely positive. :) So, what did I like about The Universim? The Narrator! He has such a calming, deep voice that really relaxes me. It suits the role perfectly and he’s a genuinely well-written character. His comments are interesting, witty, and just pleasant to listen to. Speaking of humor, that’s the second thing I really enjoyed. To be honest, when I first started and the devs served up their first joke, I was a bit skeptical. I thought, "Oh no, is this going to be full of cringe?" Fortunately, it’s not. The humor & jokes fit the gameplay... and I smiled a few times :) I enjoy the art style, the graphics. It suits the game's vibe and looks good. It's not a masterpiece, it's not something that I would put on my wall as a poster, but just looks nice and fit together well. I was also surprised by how much content there is. New things kept popping up, which kept me hooked for a long time. After 15 hours, I reached the space age and was able to colonise other planets. At that point, I realised that there was still a lot more to discover and that there was still a big part of the game left to play, but I stopped.... Why did I stop? Now we go to things that I didn't enjoy. Many things are not explained clearly enough. You often have to make decisions based on intuition or experimentation. That would be cool, but the problem is that the game becomes very punishing in the later stages if you make the wrong choice early on. I know that’s part of the strategy/city-builder genre, but here it felt a bit off. But here goes another problem - you don't feel that something is wrong. You go stress free through one event to another, from one research to another, you expand a lot and problems suddenly start to pile up.... Other settlements attack, but my troops don't defend? I still don't know tbh... maybe a bug? Electricity usage can rapidly go to extremes and half of your city is not working. People starve, even though you built a lot of eateries. One moment I have too many Creator Points, the next I don't have enough to help anyone The percentage of believers is falling, which is natural when there is more education and development, but overall, I still don't know what to do to catch up. I healed them, performed miracles and other things... but it didn't help much. All these problems just came out of nowhere for me. I felt like I didn't truly understand why they were happening or how to fix them. So after 15 hours I lost motivation to continue the game, but I enjoyed the experience regardless of problems above. I can definetly say that I enjoyed playing this game, it was fun and time well spent. I just reached the point where I felt that it doesn't make sense anymore and it's time to jump to another game.
