  To summon up where we are with Hardware Engineers still in Early Access since Aug 2016: Hardware Engineers is a simulation game where you have to manage a IT business. In a world where technology expands every day, you will need to learn how to be competitive. Economy, reputation , selling strategy and communication will be your best weapon to travel on the road of success! Current features: -Play with large amount of components like processors, graphic cards, RAM with realistic and balanced characteristics! -Buy, sell, test, optimize, replace all devices and components in a computer. -Create your own rig for different profiles from the little workstation to powerful gaming computer. -Investigate on system of your client to repair and debug. -Reinvest in your company to expand your business. -Native 4K support -Develop your skills -Achievements -Steam Workshop The developer is working hard and updates and fixes are coming at a steady phase. Working nicely at the moment and looks to be a pretty good game when released. [i]* The review critiques a work in progress, and represents a snapshot of the game at the time of the review's publication. Unlike released games I don't give Early Access games a review score.[/i]

  As a PC Hardware nerd myself Hardware Engineers has definitly become a weekly favourite that I allways have trouble putting down.

  I'd originally bought it when it was in EA. Figured I'd give it another try. The game suffers from not having better art, but more importantly better design. It feels designed by a programmer; it feels super clunky. Sometimes buttons don't work, and it just leaves you to work out why. I could complete some of the tutorials for this reason. If it had some proper design love, this could be engaging. Unfortunately it isn't yet. Was way too early to exit EA. (Going to ignore the lack of support for Ultrawide, but I'd have hoped I could at least play in letterboxed full screen.)

  + Interesting concept - You start off in a shop you can barely afford the rent for - If you're in debt, you can't buy new components, forcing you to restart the game - Placing items in the displays is merely decorative, as customers stop by asking for very specific items thus forcing you to order the component for them. Feels more like running a pickup-pooint than a shop - Cumbersome interface - Poor language - Some things should be explained to the player, rather than having them find out – When I received my first delivery, it took me a good couple of minutes to figure out why the items weren't in my inventory;. Turns out they were in a little box, blending in with the colour of the floor, in the back of the shop. Then I had to figure out how to move the items from said box into my inventory, as drag-and-dropping them, which usually works, doesn't work in this particular situation.

  So glad I happened upon this game! Very in depth and gives you a real sense that you're an actual I.T engineer. Can see myself playing this for hours if I'm not careful

  I have supported this game since it's launch weekend. It continues to feature regular updates which include bug fixes, content additions and tweaks to gameplay as requested by the community. The updates are small but regular. The workshop features roughly 20x additional content for the game but it's fun enough without it. I would guess the game will come out of early access by or near 01 2018 but I am confident that we will still see some minor tweaks after that. With all small indie projects, the success of the game relies on the support we, the gamers, provide along the way. Negative reviews that fail to account for the development process and such will only stunt the ability of the studio to make a great game. This is a great game and a wonderful developer. Buy it, play it, support it with good reviews and spreading the good word.

  I do IT professionally for a living, and I've been building my own computers since I was a kid, so when this game appeared on Steam I instantly took a shine to it. The developer is a great guy who is building this game by himself, yet he manages to put out updates all the time, with both content and bug fixes. He listens to feedback, and often will add features we request into the game soon after we ask. Same goes for any fixes we think could be made; if he becomes aware of something that needs fixing, don't expect it to be broken for long. He has a clear path for improving the game and adding content, with no slowdown in sight. True, it could use more content. But this is a unique little gem that doesn't break the bank. I am happy to have been able to purchase this and help support a truly helpful, caring developer.

  Awesome game, the developer knows his stuff. Got this from the sale for £3 and I don't regret purchasing this. If you're thinking about buying this and you're a PC enthusiast then what are you waiting for? Buy it!

  Very good and interesting concept, especially the part of stealing parts. Some annoying bugs which doesn't ruin the game. Overall it's being a nice game, continue the good work!

  It's pretty fun. Lacks the graphics and real-world hardware of PC Building Simulator, but is also quite a bit deeper, and does more with the business element. Totally worth having both. It seems to be made by one guy, who must work on this game constantly because it updates all the time. Each update greatly improves the experience, so if you don't like something, just come back in a week or two and it will probably be fixed or replaced with a better system.
