Technotopia is a city-builder roguelike card game. Take on the role of an AI designed to build a perfect city. Build districts, meet the needs of diverse communities and maintain the delicate balance between factions vying for control over you!
This game cost me less than $2 on sale and now having played it, I'd have been more than willing to play the full paltry price. I absolutely love the Metropolis inspired art-deco style. But the art is not the only Metropolis reference- though here Futura (Iris in this game) is the attempted mediator rather than the antagonist.

Expect a fairly small depth at first and overall a chill vibe even when stakes are high
Nice puzzle game. 100% (story+ach.) in 18 hours roughly by playing normally. 80% of ach. can be achieved by finishing the story.

Bought it on sale for about £1.28 (probably $2?) and it was well worth about 10 hours of gameplay. Fairly simple puzzle game, nothing that complex. It actually could have been much better if the system stacked more and became more complex but great what what it is. And if you like art deco meets futurism than you're in for a treat.
Fun while it lasts, it lacks a lot of replayability as there are only so many events to find and after you complete the main story, you've seen the best it has to offer. additional story content would've elevated it as well, but for five dollars it was an excellent game and easy recommend, 8/10
