« Factorio es, sin duda, una de las proezas de diseño más fascinantes de la historia del videojuego, una máquina de devorar horas que convierte la logística industrial en una forma de arte. Lo que lo hace especial es su capacidad para escalar desde un simple minero de carbón manual hasta una megafábrica automatizada que domina un planeta entero, ofreciendo una sensación de progresión tan gratificante que resulta casi adictiva. La brillantez del juego reside en su capacidad para obligarte a resolver problemas de optimización constantes; cada vez que arreglas un cuello de botella en tu línea de producción, surge una nueva necesidad de recursos o energía que te impulsa a expandirte. Es un título que premia la planificación y la creatividad, convirtiendo la complejidad técnica en un puzzle mental extremadamente satisfactorio. Sin embargo, esta misma complejidad puede ser su mayor barrera: la curva de aprendizaje es empinada y el juego no perdona la desorganización, lo que puede llevar a momentos de frustración extrema cuando toda tu red de cintas transportadoras se detiene por un error de diseño básico. Además, aunque la premisa de defender tu base de la fauna local añade una capa de tensión necesaria, los combates a menudo se sienten como una distracción secundaria frente a la profundidad de la construcción. En definitiva, Factorio no es un juego para todo el mundo, pero para quienes buscan una experiencia profunda, técnica y capaz de ofrecer una satisfacción intelectual inigualable, es una obra maestra del diseño sistémico que define su propio género. »

« This is a particular type of game that’s not for everyone but if you enjoy it, it’s best in class. There’s a lot of depth and elegance in the design. It’s an incredible game that’s hard to stop playing. I strongly recommend avoiding spoilers about how to do things optimally. The game is super replayable and progressing over multiple playthroughs is incredibly rewarding. If you enjoy programming, optimizing, debugging, or managing complexity then there’s a high chance you’ll love this game. »

« One of the best games of all time. You can spend hundreds of hours and never be borred. »

« This game was a generic sprite based crafting game when it came out over a decade ago. Since then the devs have raised the price to AAA levels, but the game is still a basic generic indie crafting game from a decade ago. The devs are also extremely petty and antagonistic, and if you don't leave a positive review or you have a question about a bug, they'll ban you from the discussion board. Don't bother with this, there are plenty of other crafting games from 2014 or later that don't cost AAA money. »
