This game is pretty deep. There's a lot to do each day, and the challenge to find the right gear is entirely up to how you play. I'm fairly new to this, but I'm very impressed at the amount of diversity in the game play. It seems to have aspects of many different styles of games ask packed in one. If you're up for a challenge, and tired of the blind button pressing idle games, definitely give this one a try. Make sure you get in an active alliance! Everything will be so much better!
