What players think
The recurring themes across 101 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
After about 4h of gameplay, I’ve had a good first impression of New Cycle.
After playing through the campaign and messing around in sandbox mode, I think the fun has been had for now.
The overall atmosphere and visuals help make the city feel alive
The game definitely feels too easy at the start on normal difficulty
The interface is nice and managing the settlement feels smooth once you figure things out.
In my humble opinion I think Bug fixing & HUGE optimization efforts are needed before adding anything further to the game.
