Nova Lands Reviews
Nova Lands isn't the deepest automation game around, but it's also not trying to be Satisfactory or Dyson Sphere Project so doesn't need to be.
Nova Lands is an engrossing supply chain management game that can be tough to put down. As is typical for the genre on consoles, there are some minor quality of life frustrations, but it's an easy game to recommend despite that. For newcomers to this sort of game, Nova Lands might be the perfect starting point, while genre enthusiasts can expect to spend many hours building and optimizing.
Nova Lands is an indie title that has all the options that a AAA title of this genre can have. It's fun, addictive and never boring. If you like this type of games, I'm sure this production will catch you from the first minutes; Without trying to reinvent the genre, it avoids being a copy and paste of other famous titles and proposes very interesting mechanics without adding absurd complexity.

Colorful and chill resource management minimalist experience with an addictive gameplay loop
Equal parts relaxing and chaotic, Nova Lands is an easy-to-love automation game with a gameplay loop that will have you hooked for hours on end.
From a humble start to developing a massive network of automated islands, Nova Lands is one of the most rewarding games of its kind.
Nova Lands offers an interesting, if familiar, little journey with a fun enough gameplay loop. The game’s clean graphics focus on automation should provide a refreshing and fun experience for fans of titles like Factorio and Forager. While the title lacks in scope and replayability, the overall gameplay remains enjoyable, though it’s not lacking in room for improvement. With refinements to island variation, resource distribution, replayability, and other areas, Nova Lands has the potential to become a truly stellar gaming experience that keeps players coming back for more.
Stripping down the survival genre perhaps a little too close to the bare bones, Nova Lands comes up short overall
While it doesn't offer much new to management games, Nova Lands perfects and streamlines automation in a variety of clever ways.
Overall I like Nova Lands a lot, it has fun and engaging gameplay mechanics, and the gameplay loop is addictive. It’s the kind of game you want to return to after playing for a while. I enjoyed exploring and setting up the production line on the islands and building my home; also, watching the bots run around doing their work is surprisingly relaxing.
