We were able to download Steamworld Build on our Xbox Series S. I have the Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscription, so the game was free to download and play. I was pretty interested in trying out Steamworld Build from various posts on Twitter from content creators. I was like, sure lets jump into the rabbit hold.
Our Thoughts
Pro:
- Animations
- I liked how the buildings had their own animations which looked pretty cool. I enjoyed how you can zoom in during game play to see things moving around in the city. I enjoy that as you know the city your building is very much alive and moving around.
- Easy to Learn
- With other games that had tutorials during the game, I would take time to learn and eventually go back to the tutorials. Steamworld Build is very easy to learn and picked the controls in a matter of minutes. I enjoyed that as the controls are simple and straight to the point.
Con:
- Boring Quite Fast
- After about an hour of gameplay, I got bored. I enjoyed building items around my cit and switching to the mines, but I got pretty bored. I think there should have been more lore of the story added to keep my interest.
