Create! Craftlands Workshoppe is a business simulation game developed by Arvydas emaitis and published by Excalibur Games, Doyoyo Games, which was released on the Steam platform on December 17, 2021 and priced at 50 yuan. Players will travel to Cloud Island to inherit an abandoned workshop, choose between three development directions, and embark on a unique path of operation.
Alchemist, cook or blacksmith?
The design of these three professions is still quite innovative. Business simulation games are generally locked in a single business project or a variety of fixed to allow players to switch at any time, and in "Create! In "Cloud Island Workshop", a single week can only choose one kind of livelihood. While it may sound unrelated, the operating models of the three classes are actually quite the same: manufactured by recipe – sold – improved proficiency – obtained with new recipes – remade... Comes with unlocking of various facility buildings. Personally choosing the simplest alchemist, the assembly line is to buy containers and fillers to dispense potions to sell.
Although the occupation is fixed, the actual content of the operation is equally colorful. From the hands-on seven to ten to the workshop formation of the hand-in-hand treasurer, from the island's self-proclaimed "living in a corner" to expanding business all the way to "all over the world", how can this not be satisfied?
Workshop operations, orderly
After accumulating a considerable amount of money, the workshop is unlocked. You can hire people in it, and each one has a different cost of ability and needs to be carefully selected. If you want to run smoothly, you must also build the relevant facilities in advance and provide sufficient liquidity to purchase goods.
Pixels are rudimentary, or do they have a different flavor?
Once you enter the game, you may feel that it is broken. The pixel style does look a little rudimentary, but Create! "Cloud Island Workshop" did cartoon processing. The main sense of cheapness is that after entering the house, in addition to the black around the facilities in the house, the fixed viewing angle and the floor of half of the room are "potholes" and then the black screen, which is not very wonderful in appearance.
However, the location treatment is still very coordinated, and the thriving cloud island scenery and the industrious workshop owner still have traces of tailing behind them when running, which is very cute.
Some flaws
At present, this game has two languages, Chinese and English, but it can be seen that the configuration Chinese is very flawed. The latest announcement when opening the game is all in English, and some specious translations in the game can sometimes mislead the player or be completely incomprehensible. For example, "Buying a Required Facility" when a workshop is open does not provide information on which item to purchase.
Although many business games do require a long upfront job to accumulate a lot of money, Create! The money required for "Cloud Island Workshop" seems to be a bit much. On the one hand, the procurement of raw materials requires a lot of time to travel to and from the town, and on the other hand, the low profits brought about by high costs make us have to win by quantity, which is even more time-consuming. This pressure doesn't ease until the workplace is built and staff is hired, and that's at least two weeks after the game. Then there are more complex recipes, and the interlocking production is dazzling.
brief summary
Overall, the pixel painting style adds points to the taste, the specific gameplay is somewhat bo but not refined, and the interface design and Chineseization need to be improved. Personally, I feel that there is some taste of semi-finished products, but the content is rich and can indeed be matched with a price of 50 yuan. If you have a soft spot for business simulation, Create! Cloud Island Workshop may be a good choice.
