Reception

Giving it a rating of 65, New Game Network described the game as "fairly shallow, and there seems to be a number of steps back from the 2016 version - aside from the improved visuals."[5] VentureBeat says "as a bare-bones remake of an existing game, it’s not bad," and "it whets my appetite for a more sophisticated and realistic simulation".[6]

gollark: No, I mean use them to... produce useful things?
gollark: There needs to be a better incentive to actually *use* patents, I think.
gollark: It's helpful and/or probably needed for *some* of them.
