Sources and Evidence
Every guide is built from a small, inspectable evidence set. Official sources establish product facts; dated store pages establish platform details; community reports stay visibly labeled.
Official and store sources
- S01
- Steam store — identity, features, languages, requirements
- S02
- Official homepage — product overview
- S03
- Official 1.0 launch notes — systems and changes
- S04
- Official 1.0 FAQ — date, saves, price, ports
- S05
- Official automation article — pipes, filters, recipes
- S06
- Xbox store — platforms, co-op, Play Anywhere
Community evidence
S07 is a 2025 Steam discussion about nickel landmarks. S08 is a 2025 Steam discussion about crop groups and rotation. Both predate version 1.0 and are included only where they help form a testable clue. They are never silently upgraded to official mechanics.
A wiki.gg result was unavailable behind a Cloudflare challenge during research. The challenge was not bypassed and no claims were taken from that page. Competitor guides and SERP snippets were not copied into the published articles.
Search demand and review method
S09 is Google Trends for the United States, web search, trailing 12 months. S10 is a BrowserOS Neo A–Z autocomplete sample in a United States context. These sources shaped the route map but do not prove a game mechanic.
Research was checked on November 5, 2026. Volatile facts—price, achievement count, sales, catalog inclusion, and platform plans—are date-stamped or deliberately omitted. Corrections should include the affected URL, the claim, a primary source, the game version, and the observation date.
Quick answers
Why use community sources at all?+
They can provide a useful clue when official documentation is silent, but the page labels the version and asks readers to reproduce the result.
Why is there no VideoObject schema for the trailer?+
The exact upload time and timezone were not verified. A date-only or guessed timestamp would violate this site’s evidence standard.
How often are sources reviewed?+
The current evidence review date is shown on every page. Volatile facts should be rechecked after major patches or store changes.
