It's very intimidating at first, but there are loads of difficulty options. The standard option plays more or less like Tropico, but on the "realistic" mode, you need to actually source the materials and labour whenever you build any building. So you either need to import workers and resources, or else have a supply chain for every possible material including concrete, steel, and wood. And also have enough labourers who don't have other jobs that they can work on construction sites. That's when it becomes more like Factorio.

I'm sorry for cursing you with this knowledge. It's definitely got the same level of addictiveness as Factorio
