Am I reading that correctly? Nintendo Switch is the only console edition???
Not that I have a problem with that being a holistic gamer. It's somewhat refreshing to see the Switch get some love, when you see the next indie hit off of PC show up on Game Pass.
You see your friends on your console social tab as to what games they've been playing and get curious enough to want to take a chance on it yourself. First time was Powerwash Simulator on the XBOX... Then I saw a friend who got me hooked on a brilliant Italian pizzeria playing this and he got me hook on Factorio as well! AU@90 later... Factorio has worked it's way to top of both of my PC and Switch stack of games! A few nights before getting my first taste of Factorio, I had a few sleepless nights playing Harvest: Massive Encounter... Building a Deathstar laser is entertaining enough, but playing a logic game where progression feels like mental martial arts?!? Factorio has to be only of the greatest survival strategy games on the market! The general aesthetic looks to be heavily inspired by The Bitmap Brothers (eg. Z, Speedball, etc.) - No, really! This game serious looks, sounds and plays like one of the Amiga library's games you see in the computer game hall of fame!
Factorio is another game that gives you a rather annoying and very personal understanding of Einstein's Theory of Relativity: It's was 17:00 when I started playing and now it's 05:30!
