What players say

74% of 1,469 reviews are positive · 72% of 11 in the last 30 days

Players praise the absurd humor, cult customization, and compound building. The most common complaints are long stretches of waiting, shallow and repetitive late-game progression, and a tutorial and interface that leave key systems unclear.
