Sci-fi, you're dropped down to a lush alien planet to do what humans do best: strip all of its natural resources! Combat is limited, but boils down to fighting off wild animals - the main gist of the game is building and optimizing things like miners/conveyor belts/smeltors/assemblers/etc to automate the pillaging of the environment with increasing efficiency... which admittedly sounds more like work than play, but this title caught me a bit off guard with how fun and - true to its name - satisfying it is play.
Just a warning: The current version has performance issues, it stutters like crazy even on beefy setups. It seems they didn't get the level streaming implementation of UE5 right on the first try. This will probably get fixed for 1.0, but currently it's painful playing in some parts of the map.
