Probably one of the most complex builder games out there
It’s a bit rough around the edges but it’s good fun once you sink your teeth in.
Ive had a lot of fun but eventually it gets so complex and I realize a made a mistake weeks ago that hurts me lol
Only a few tutorial level. Haven’t have time to screw around with it yet.
I have not, but I would like to hear from those who have. I enjoy city planning games such as Cities Skylines, and even if I would like to try one set in a communist society, truth is that it looks worse in every gameplay aspect other than the setting. Am I in the wrong?
They are very different games. Cities Skylines is a city painter, Workers & Resources is a much more challenging game and the title explains it well. It’s all about resource exploitation and worker allocation after all, but you can also have lots of fun doing city building. Plus the theme is so much better than Cities Skylines.
So, more like Tropico?
Yes, but also no. You have to create the entire infrastructure yourself in W&R:SR. In Tropico you just “paint” roads and cars appear by themselves and don’t need fuel, and so on. Stolen from a Steam review: “The game focuses on its realistic economic simulation. The player must manage resources such as coal, iron, and oil to power factories and produce goods. Despite a complete planned economy, a player must still account for the fluctuating prices of the global export market, so the player must carefully balance and diversify exports and imports to ensure economic security. Additionally, the game features a detailed transportation system, including trains, trucks, and ships, which must be managed to transport goods efficiently. While the transport system can initially be a little obtuse, once you learn how to filter the inputs a station is allowed to have you’ll figure it out. Having experience in games with similar transport systems like OpenTTD or IG2 is a great help.”
Thanks. Sounds interesting, will check it out.
