Factorio is a construction and management simulation game. Factorio began development in 2012 by the Prague-based Wube Software. It was released in early access in 2016, and fully on August 14, 2020. An Indiegogo campaign in 2013 raised more than its goal, and early access versions have been sold on Steam and other distributors to raise further funds. The game follows an engineer who crash-landed on an alien planet and must harvest resources and create industry to build a rocket; however, as an open-world game, players can continue the game past the end of the storyline.
