terrible, its so on the rails its unplayable

Nothing in this game makes any sense the first time you start playing it, and that's a huge problem. The main issue is the fundamental UX. It's abstract, it's confusing, it's arbitrary... it somehow manages to be both too spread out and too cluttered at the same time... then the Tutorial pops up and tells you to do a thing, only you have no idea how to do that thing because you don't understand the confusing UX yet.

None of the structures actually look like anything, you have to manually decide which way BOTH ENDS of the conveyor belts face using giant buttons on the bottom of the screen buried in a menu, and GODS HELP YOU if you accidentally figure out how to put down the resource processor on your own before the game commands you to. You'll get trapped with a giant menu covering the screen forever and no way to back out of it.

Worst of all, this game actually has the nerve to name-drop Factorio! This is nothing like Factorio. It's not even Mindustry. At best, it's a super-buggy, super-abstract knockoff of Big Pharma, only with even more limited building space.

And did I mention the tutorial you can't skip breaks the game? THE TUTORIAL YOU CAN'T SKIP BREAKS THE GAME. Don't play this.

lost my progress, i saved the game, i returned at the next day, my factory was gone, the nomad clan was gone but i had the brainiacs but no way to buy the nomads back, the mechanics are interesting but i simply cant play this if there is no way to properly save

The game constantly breaks due to the tutorial. The 1.2 Production tutorial refuses to close and nothing gets around it. If I make the mistake of opening a menu then I can no longer click on anything (nothing clickable is visible).

I really like this game, only complaint is that the game freaks out once you have too many factories. also can you make factories copyable, like saving it as a preset and then if the player has the materials they can just copy that factory.
Edit:so basically all the buttons no longer have text and anything I click on has not actual affect
