Satisfactory Reviews

Very engaging and fun! I haven't messed with any multi-player biz yet but have enjoyed single player it a lot.

Love this game, it feels like its just made to be played with and that's about it.

This game is a never ending cycle of tearing all your hard work down just to rebuild it with 15% more efficiency. And i absolutely love that it feels like you've "started over" when u rebuild your base without actually starting over.

Satisfactory is a remarkable factory management simulator that offers a unique and captivating gaming experience. With its blend of exploration, automation, and resource exploitation, Satisfactory has become the uncrowned king of factory games. The addictive gameplay, stunning visuals, and the promise of continuous updates and improvements make Satisfactory a MUST-PLAY for fans of the genre.

Satisfactory is all about efficiency, planning, and making the most out of limited resources. The fun starts immediately, with rapid progression in the early game. You’ll quickly set up miners, belts, and production lines, only to realize that the next upgrade requires a ridiculous amount of resources—forcing you to either expand or just stand around waiting. The real magic happens when you scale up. Massive power plants, intricate belt systems, and logistics that make your head spin—this is where the game shines. Building is smooth, and working with friends makes the whole experience even better. You can divide work, optimize production, and solve power problems together. Sure, sometimes there are connection issues, but that’s just life. Exploration? It’s there, but it’s more of a necessity than a focus. You’ll hunt for power slugs (some easy, some painfully hard to reach), but the world itself doesn’t drastically change as you move across the map—it’s just different scenery. What really matters is where the ores and water are because having to travel for basic adjustments is a pain. Conveyor belts are solid, though they can get clogged with unwanted materials, which is annoying to fix. Power management, on the other hand, is one of the best mechanics in the game—you're always pushing for more, and finding new ways to generate it is super satisfying. Now, my biggest gripe? The lack of variety in resources. There’s one main ore that’s used in almost everything, a secondary one that’s kinda important, and the rest are barely relevant. More ores, more recipes, and more ways to create new things would take this game to the next level. Right now, progression mostly just builds on itself instead of branching into new areas. One last thing—this game is a beast when it comes to performance. If you’re planning to play it for the visuals, be warned. You’ll need a strong graphics card, because even on the lowest settings, weaker PCs will struggle. Overall, Satisfactory is an incredible factory builder with deep logistics, great multiplayer, and endless optimization potential. But it could use more variety in crafting and a smoother late-game experience. If you love efficiency, planning, and automation, this game will hook you for hours. Just make sure your PC can handle it. 8,5/10 – Needs more ores, but still an addictive masterpiece.

Really fun and immersive factory sim. Great first person perspective to get a close up look at things. Cool exploration, great progression systems, and interesting story to ground everything. As far as sandbox sims go, this one is really well executed.

A Good 3D Factory builder and competitor to Factorio (another game I invested a lot of time in.) I've been playing this game before the original release which means I experienced Mercer Spheres and SAM ore when they weren't usable at the time. It's good that they have a purpose now. Just by looking at my play time and taking the time to optimize the factory layout while unlocking milestones and technologies, this game can be pure addiction. Even with unlocking the special mechanics from the MAM terminal it made a whole lot easier to use things like Mercer Spheres, Somersloops, etc. If you like exploration, sandbox but also creativity and optimization construction, then this game is for you and all Factorio players.

In all my years of gaming, two games stand out as being the premier experiences I have ever had. One was Minecraft, back when I had a server along with my children and their friends. And now, Satisfactory has risen to that level of incredible enjoyment. I just completed all the milestones in the game, and those 351 hours were immensely satisfying (yes, the game's name couldn't be more appropriate). V1.0, which I started in, is a masterfully crafted environment that was stunningly beautiful, intriguingly challenging, perfectly balanced, and just a blast to live in. The decisions that were made by the developers regarding all aspects of the game were extremely impressive. I could go on and on... just get it, just play it, and you will absolutely love it.

very addicting and funny when it gives you the game allerts i think every 2 hours of playing continuously

I played a TON of this game in Early Access on EGS. Stopped right before they added nuclear power. Jumped back in at 1.0 and now I've got a problem. I finished my first playthrough at ~650 hours. I'm now over 100 hours into my second playtrough, and I just started making screws. I have never been this addicted to game in my entire life. That form can equal function is the number one thing that keeps my brain engaged with Satisfactory. I am a systems-thinker. Since I was a kid, I've always been into systems designs. First it was roads, highways etc that kept my mind busy. Later more complex systems like modular synthesizers etc. Satisfactory lets me play with systems, and I just see endless possibility. My perfectionist brain constantly scours my designs to find inefficiency. I'll look over a iron plate layout, realize I could make it 2x faster, then spend the next few hours making it so. Once I'm overwhelmed with numbers, I just switch to designing aesthetics for my factory. #1 Desert Island Game for me, and one of my favorite games ever made.
