Tunnet has a story and is not an infinite grind.

Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
This game is for a very niche demographic - I have monster behavior on friendly just so I can learn the networking aspect of gameplay, and after 130 hours I've built an easily replicated and modular router design that I've just finished upgrading for my 0.0.x.x and 0.1.x.x subnets - and I've just now discovered a massive security flaw that is also causing major packet loss in 0.1.3.x.

Optimization
Players who bring up Optimization mostly praise it.
Rather than overwhelming players with unnecessary complexity, Tunnet turns infrastructure management into a rewarding puzzle-solving process built around experimentation and optimization.
26 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
The simple environments work surprisingly well because the lighting and underground architecture create a distinctive industrial aesthetic filled with isolation and tension.
