About the game

What is Futuropia

In this Utopian society, we all will work much less. Our robots can do nearly everything already. There is no need for great envy. It is simply about equality, justice, and the fair allocation of the complete and still necessary work, which then gives us ALL more leisure time.

Success means we will have time for the activities we like the most: fishing, farming, fencing, flying, ..., as well as gaming, building, painting, traveling, composing, and more. If somebody wants to work more than needed, they should do that. This is about the freedom! So let us rethink this: joblessness is not a disgrace, it is the new goal!

We are members of a team striving to realize this utopian ideal. We try to develop completely self-sustaining homes that function as efficiently as possible. They must generate enough food and energy to allow the residents the greatest possible freedom (thus, leisure time). The more people in our development who no longer need to work, the closer we are to reaching our goal! The player who builds the best development will win the game, and their development will become reality!

muy malo.

davidarribas5/10

Con una partida es un juego difícil de puntuar, a mi personalmente no me ha llenado, pero el juego no está mal. Me recuerda mucho a director de fábrica y sigue la misma linea de eficiencia matemática del autor, pero en este caso el tema se me antoja blandurrio y poco interesante.

Juego muy muy guiado. Una vez entiendes la mecánica ya sabes que hacer en tu turno constantemente, 0 emoción. Por ahora sólo he probado el solitario el cual el objetivo es superar tu récord, nada motivador. Veremos si a más jugadores mejora...pero demasiado tiempo invertido en jugar para la satisfacción que produce.
