Mood Publishing is launching a crowdfunding campaign on Gamefound for Satisfactory: The Board Game, a tabletop adaptation of the factory-building video game. Designed by David Thor Fjalarsson, the game challenges up to four players to mine, refine, and upgrade factories to earn FICSIT points before the space elevator is completed.
Gameplay occurs on a large hex-grid map where players perform two actions per turn: building, moving, or operating their factory. The production phase follows, where mines extract iron, copper, or limestone, and materials move along conveyor belts. Players can construct structures like extractors or refineries, which grant bonus actions, allowing for complex, efficient turn sequences.
The reviewer notes that while the game is competitive, it avoids direct combat, instead focusing on blocking expansion by claiming tiles. The experience varies significantly by player count; lower counts favor optimization, while higher counts introduce more conflict over resources. The reviewer praised the game's ability to capture the core satisfaction of building efficient systems, though noted the physical setup is imposing and icon-heavy, potentially causing confusion without a reference card.
The game is currently in development, with sessions lasting between 2 and 3.5 hours. Interested players can review the draft rules on Gamefound or test an official preview build on Tabletop Simulator via Steam.
