Skyline Foundry

Skyline Foundry hands you an empty plot and asks you to turn raw resources into finished goods through a web of conveyors and workshops. It's a management sim that keeps the numbers readable.

The clever bit is the pacing: nothing runs in real time while you're away in a punishing way, so you can plan a factory layout without feeling blackmailed into checking in. Optimising a bottleneck is quietly satisfying.

It runs out of fresh ideas a bit before the final tier of buildings, and the late game leans on repetition. Still, for a relaxing planning game it does the fundamentals well.

What we liked

• Readable supply-chain puzzles
• No punishing timers
• Great for slow planning sessions
