About the Game
Do you like automation games? Then you are in the right place!
shapez is a relaxed game in which you have to build factories for the automated production of geometric shapes. As the level increases, the shapes become more and more complex, and you have to spread out on the infinite map.
And as if that wasn’t enough, you also have to produce exponentially more to satisfy the demands – the only thing that helps is scaling! While you only have to process shapes at the beginning, you will later have to color them – by extracting and mixing colors!
Buying the game on Steam gives you access to the full version, but you can also play the steam demo first and decide later!

I swear on god, this game only looks boring. If you have whatever mental disorder I have to end up here, do not buy this game. It made crack look healthy, and you will forget to eat, drink and sleep. I played this game for 25hrs in 3 days to reach 100%. 10/10 game, I don't think I am mentally stable enough to play this game again.

The game is about building factories and extracting shapes using production lines.
✅Great freedom in designing and optimizing the shape factory.
✅Infinite map, you can produce until the end of the world 😃
✅Building buildings and conveyor belts is free, which makes it easier to experiment and expand the factory.
✅The game requires planning, optimization and strategic thinking, which provides a satisfying depth of gameplay
✅You can chill out as much as possible.
✅The addition of extracting and mixing colors adds another layer of complexity and enjoyment.
✅The price is most appropriate for this game
✅There are no time limits, you can easily produce
❌The game can be complicated at a later stage
❌After some time, this game can get boring because we do the same thing all the time

Factory automation game. Here's the key features:
Slick visuals, clean UI, excellent performance
No building cost, you can build and iterate at will
Infinite map, infinite shape types, infinite fun
No time-limits, threats nor fail triggers
Multiple objectives to eliminate downtime
Exceptionally well crafted difficulty increase
Masterful usage of gameplay quirks to create "impossible" shapes
Introduces copy-pasting at the perfect time
Introduces &/OR/NOR/XOR, Filters, Transistors, Comparators, (etc) at level 26
Descriptive:
If you like automation games, but want to chill while at it, you'll love this one. All artificial restrictions other games (eg: Factorio) have aren't present, so your creations and optimization are the keys to success.
The game gives you multiple objectives at once in the form of level requirements and upgrade requirements, so there will not be any downtime, as you can iterate on a secondary objective while one factory outputs towards a goal.
Once level 26 is achieved, one can build automation with circuitry to create any shape automatically, at which point, one can consider the game to be beaten.
To sum it up, it's a lightweight, perfectly crafted factory automation game that will take you 30 to 80 hours to complete, depending on how much you want to idle, how much you understand of circuitry automation, and if you're a achievement completionist or not. I highly recommend trying it out.
Rating: 10/10
If mine (And any other) review was informative, please mark it as helpful. We should have good reviews in the store page, not jokes nor copy-pastas. Thank you!

Do not play this
it's bait
it looks boring
but before you know it you're building the everything machine
stop
before it's too late

Essentially a lightweight, abstract version of Factorio. shapez ditches various "superfluous" elements of Factorio, like resource management. defense, and vehicles, to focus on the core gameplay of building the factory. The idea to use shapes as resources is pretty clever as it allows for loads of combinations that are intuitive to create (not needing a recipe tree or anything). Definitely worth the price. Also check out shapez 2!

Need a game to mindlessly play with the satisfaction of automation? This is the one. Its like Factorio.. only you arent a person.. and you farm shapes.. and you cant lose... It makes my neurospicy happy.

People with addictive personalities and those who are Neurodivergent should probably stay away from this game and Factorio.
That said, I freaking love this game and factorio
