Had me mesmerised from start to finish - starting, unfortunately, at 11PM. It's just difficult enough. I only had to Google for help once, and that was only because I forgot it has hints built-in. The story and characters are interesting, although some of them look so similar that I forget who they are. Identifying the plants is very satisfying; I only wish the elixir-making feature was introduced a little sooner, and that there were more of them.

Worth the price.

Cat-petting is a 10/10 tactile experience.

A list of things that are added by this DLC, for prospective purchasers:

1. You can go to the new underground map via two or three entry points on the surface. It's pitch-black down there, and you have to light it up with about a hundred lamps that cost nothing to build and don't require maintenance or power. Most of the underground map is blocked off by cave-ins. You won't be able to clear them out until you research a tech that, for me, took about 4-5 hours to reach while managing my surface colony.

2. You can build a dome underground. You can build extractors to collect water, metals and rare metals. It is otherwise the same as the surface, except your colonists will be sad (because they are underground). You can build struts to support the caves and prevent cave-ins, but I never got any cave-ins near my structures anyway, so they didn't do anything for me.

3. You can send a rocket to an asteroid, which is Mars but smaller and re-skinned, what feels like once every two hours at max speed. You can stay for a maximum of about thirty minutes. If you don't send your stuff back in time, you lose everything.

4. There's a new line of technology, Recon & Expansion. It's full of techs that let you do the previous 3 items faster. About the only thing I cared about in R&E was the Drone Hub Extender, which is admittedly pretty nice, but costs exotic minerals to build and maintain. There's also the tech, RIGHT at the end, that lets you dismantle buildings back into prefabs.

5. A new resource is added: exotic minerals. You can mine exotic minerals from asteroids, but only some of them.

6. EVERYTHING added by this DLC requires a ♥♥♥♥-ton of exotic minerals to build and PASSIVELY MAINTAIN, and you can't get them passively. You have to send mining expeditions to asteroids and actively manage them.

7. You can send colonists to the asteroids to help with mining. I don't know why you would want to do that though, since the auto-extractors work just fine on their own.

8. Resources of the underground and of the surface are not shared - they're like two separate colonies. Any time you want to transfer something from the surface to the underground, or vice versa, you have to manually count things out and wait for drones to deliver them to the elevator, then get them from the elevator to where they're needed, through all those long twisty tunnels (i.e. you need to research shuttle hubs AND the tech that lets them operate underground). That includes prefabs. So you buy a couple moisture vaporator prefabs, but you can't build them until you tell the underground map, "Yes, this is for YOU".

Finally, if you were expecting new mysteries, new commander profiles, new sponsors: Congratulations! :)
There are none.

I personally felt the previous DLC was a little disconnected from the game as a whole, but this one is... ignore-able, tbh. I've seen reviews saying it'll be great once the bugs are fixed (oh yeah, the bugs) but I don't know about that.

It's interesting, gave me kind of a happy/sad feeling. Thinking about death and funerals usually freaks me out, but this game deals with it so pragmatically that it didn't happen. I feel like I learned a couple of things about how bodies are handled and what options I have - not really on my mind much as I'm 21, but there you go.

The game lasts for less than an hour, however. You could potentially get more time out of the Minesweeper mini-game than the rest of the game itself. I don't think it's worth more than a fiver.
