Yes, it was a little rough around the edges, but once I understood everything I had a good time.

I'll admit that I go into these games blindly, and don't read the descriptions, so it took me a bit to figure out what I was doing.

After my second try I realised I played it for over 11 minutes. That was suprising - in a positive way. I missed a option to select my workers or to group them.
