Little Rocket Lab is a cosy, colourful automation adventure that blends crafting, community, and machine building into a wholesome loop. It starts slow and can get overwhelming later, but once it clicks, it offers a clear, satisfying progression from simple tools to full automation. It is friendly, bright, and easy to understand, even if the social tone and difficulty curve will not suit everyone. For players who enjoy building, tinkering, and watching systems come to life, it delivers a charming and thoughtful experience.

Little Rocket Lab is about as cozy an introduction to automation as could be imagined, with a cast of likable characters in a run-down, charming town.

Little Rocket Lab is a lovely game, and an essential pick for fans of cosy games, but its systems are deep enough that I think the Factorio and Satisfactory players out there will still get a kick out of it.
