Thoughts on the game Timberborn (store.steampowered.com)

Has anybody given this game a try? I've been considering it for a while, but money is tight. Curious if it was worth it.

Or conversely, other other new simulation games you would recommend?

Played it a while ago and had fun with it - would recommend if you like city/base building games.

Did fall off late game with the "factorio problem" of having huge bases that you need to micromanage and build manually (so called because Factorio is the only game which I think fixes this problem; a lot of games I keep wanting to blueprint things).

Also, it took me the longest time to realise that you were allowed to run paths underwater...

The blueprints in Factorio took a good game I was enjoying to OMG this game is amazing. I remember the very first time I used blue prints. It was to lay a “big” field of solar (probably 10 panels because I was a n00b). Just magical.
