EAC doesn't need to be implemented, and the way they are handling the situation is abhorrent.

There's a lot of civilization building/management games out there, but I think this one really stands out. It has a ton of charm, a unique and pleasant style, and some fun comedy. Most games of this category tend to just throw you into blank slate world with bland tutorials and let you be on your way. There's nothing wrong with that, but it does leave something to be desired by the eventual ladder half of the game. It's very easy to lose interest in your settlement and your people.

However, The Universim grabs your attention from the beginning with it's stunning and comedic intro. It pulls you in right from the start, and keeps your attention due to the charismatic (and sometimes sassy) narrator. I really can't stress enough the amount of charm that this game oozes and brings it well above its counterparts.

Now for the gameplay. There's the standard needs of your citizens that come with every settlement game: hunger, thirst, sleep, and the like. You place facilities and give your "nuggets" jobs to maintain their, and everyone else's needs. The only thing that you don't have to worry about from the beginning is housing. As people are born and the population increases, the game automatically places housing to be built around you town center. At first I wasn't too happy with that system. But I grew to enjoy not having to worry about population control and making sure everyone was sheltered.

Overall I'm very impressed with the systems in place and the games ability to keep me enraptured. However, there are some major bugs and fine tuning needed to be done. Such as frequent crashes and certain AI quirks. I refuse to let those bring down this review, after all, the game is still in beta and early access which heavily imply that these problems and bugs will be fixed before the final release of the game. Especially if you take the time to try this game out and help to report bugs.

TLDR; Amazing game already, and I can't wait to see this game polished and shipped.

I'm very disappointed with the state of the game. Now don't get me wrong, it has some amazing features and fun gameplay, but there's some things that completely ruin the game. Those things being mostly glitches.

I've played the game for a while. I have experienced the glitchiness of the betas in all their glory, and that was fine. Its beta, you should expect glitches, especially game breaking ones. However, now that the game is out of beta and fully released, I still experience those same glitches and end up with completely soft locked saves. So many broken saves that I've lost all desire to play the game at all. I have no idea if any of it has been fixed, and I don't feel like putting a ton of effort into a save just to have it break again.

This game had no right being considered a finished release.
