User Reviews
- Star Ores Inc. is an incredibly addictive management sim. The loop of mining, selling, and upgrading is perfectly balanced. If you like games like Factorio or Dyson Sphere Program, you'll love this!
- The threat of pirate attacks adds a great layer of tension to what would otherwise be a relaxing building game. I love the visual style and the complexity of the logistics.
- A solid indie gem. The developer has clearly put a lot of thought into the automation mechanics. Watching your fleet of drones harvest an entire asteroid field is very satisfying.
- Great strategy game with plenty of depth. I spent hours just optimizing my conveyor belts to get the iron ore to the smelter faster. Highly recommended for simulation fans.
- The tech tree is massive! There is always something new to strive for, which keeps the gameplay fresh even after several hours of play.
