Early Access Review
Besiege is an addictive physics based building game, which at its core challenges you to build a machine to overcome a specific goal (level). Contraptions are engineered by putting together preexisting blocks, just like Lego. Using items such as wooden beams, wheels, cannons, spikes and many more, you can create simple but functional designs to lay waste on a battlefield or steer clear of a minefield or even fly to destroy airships. And if your patience, creativity and ingenuity know no bounds, Besiege will still allow you to construct some extremely complicated creations which will amaze all (free build mode) through the steam workshop (google search "Besiege Creations" and get ready to be awed).

+ Very high quality title for an Early Access game
+ Fairly priced for the amount of content in the game currently (with more to come)
+ The build editor is powerful and encourages creativity
+ A level editor was recently added; hopefully it will mature into a complex scenario builder
+ Support for steam workshop with 10's of thousands of user contraptions ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥
+ Multiplayer is great fun, especially when competing against friends

- Campaign levels are on the simplistic side, with just a single objective (task) to clear each
- Allows the usage of steam workshop within the default campaign (stifling your own creativity)
- A handful of workshop contraptions are so powerful that can easily clear any level
- No steam achievements or trade cards (yet?)

TL;DR: Besiege is one of these rare gems of a game that keeps getting better with time. Grab it while it is still so cheap and you will not regret it! Highly recommended (for anyone creative or otherwise)!
