FACTORIO
last updated 11.12.25
Factorio is a game about building a factory from nothing with the goal of launching a rocket.
With the DLC your objective is much more interesting, you now have to build a bunch of space platforms and colonize a total of 5 planets with the goal of launching a rocket out of the alien solar system.
This game is known to be very addicting, because at every given moment have an objective, this being expanding your resource collection, fighting the alien natives or making better designs! and is also impossible to make a perfect base, so there is always room to improvement and trying different solutions.
FYI I have 1000+ hours in steam, and im pretty sure i played 400+ more 'before having resources to buy'.

Lore
You are an engineer, sent to analize an solar system.
"despite the unusual amount of hostile life, each planet has abundant resources.
With a good defence system, it can be very usefull."
But before you could send the findinds, your communication is cut, along with your navigation system.
Before you can do anything to solve, your ship is caught by an asteroid.
With your last resources you try to change your trajectory to the nearest planet: Nauvis.
Your ship saved you from the heat and impact of the entrance, but its now irreparable. You have no way of contacting your home planet, you are all alone on the alien planet, full of resources, but full of hostile life.
If you want to return home you will have to do it by your self. To exit this solar system you will have to build your own way.
For this you will have to find the secrets of nuclear energy, metalurgy, bioengeneering, electromagnetism and cryogeny, and colonize the five planets of this solar system, along with building the logistic network of space ships. With nothing besides the resources below your feet and the ingenuity within.
