On this occasion I want to compare just how similar these games are and what each does well and, well, what each doesn’t. This kind of has me dodging the question of the blurry lines between ‘inspired by’ and ‘idea steal’ but I’m going to leave that well alone. Some further digging shows that it is more of a love letter to it and trust me, when they say ‘inspired by’ they mean it – Smart Factory Tycoon (SFT) literally screams Little Big Workshop (LBW) in nearly every pixel! I will be honest, when I first saw ‘Smart Factory Tycoon’ come up in a bundle option I was convinced it was a rip from Little Big Workshop. You say Tomato I say Tomato – You say sidewalk I say pavement – You say Factory I say Workshop? Design your dream factory, plan all steps of production, research new technologies and become a tycoon!” “Smart Factory Tycoon inspired by Little Big Workshop is a tycoon management game about running your dream factory with robots. “Manage your workers, stations, machines and create awesome stuff as your little big workshop grows into your dream factory!” kikaiki game review thebrokengamer Alba wildlife adventure Even with this, I finished (and near 100%) in 8 and a half hours … Take from that what you will. Also, I don’t normally comment on price, but if you’re going against the pound per hour of play standard, £13.49 (at time of writing) is probably a bit much for a game that could be completed in a couple of hours by someone who is playing without the curse of being squirreled by everything in sight. To sum up – Would I play it again? Probably, but it’s one of those that once you played it through, you wouldn’t be looking to replay it until sometime in the future when you need a chill break from the backlog of games you’ve got going on. Apart from this, your settings are pretty much standard. It gets kind of annoying when every time you click out of the game everything minimises, which is especially annoying if you’re in the middle of big picture mode and streaming to another device. 14 languages and a couple of fairly accommodating settings pages later, the only real gripe I have is that there is no windowed Fullscreen. There’s nothing wrong with in game only achievements, I just like showing off my achievement badges on my steam profile … it makes me feel successful in something, even if it is only in fictional worlds!Īnyway, enough of that. Currently there are only 9 steam achievements, and all of these are linked with the main story. I only wish it would transfer through as steam achievements, albeit it purely for bragging rights and a way to say ‘look mum I managed to focus on something till the end!’. Being able to lounge back and just wander around discovering all there was to see was therapeutic in its own way, and my toddler certainly enjoyed watching me do it - Extra points for allowing mum chill time along with child distraction all in one!Īnother point I find kind of neat is that, if you decide to progress the story but haven’t found everything yet, you can carry on your saved game after the ‘end’ and go and get that 100% completion. Alba however looked stunning in the simplistic art style running through my steam link onto my Sky Glass and my controller responded fluidly. Now I have to admit, as much as I love the low poly art style of most games, some don’t quite render too well, especially when put on a bigger screen.
