Play in single player against AI or in multiplayer with other players. Build at least one of each building to have a functioning economy and connect everything to the powerline grid, road grid, and crude oil pipeline grid. Hold and drag over the build buttons in the bottom right corner to find out more about the buildings. To place a building, click on the building button and click and drag on the map where you want to place it. For conduits (roads, powerlines, crude oil pipelines), make sure to hold on where you want to start the placement of the tiles and drag to where you want to end the line of tiles. Powerlines and crude oil pipelines must be placed near roads for construction materials to be transported to them.
Make sure to build enough trucks to transport resources between buildings. To build trucks, click on any player's factory and click "Buy Truck" for however many trucks are needed.
If all players click on "fast forward" the game will run at maximum speed. If any of the players click pause, the game will be paused until that player clicks play speed or fast forward.
You can send chat messages in multiplayer by clicking on the black bar beneath the notification text box and hitting return to send messages.
New maps created in the editor are automatically downloaded in multiplayer and you can join live games in progress.
You can sell and demolish buildings and sell trucks. Click on buildings to adjust wages and prices. View graphs to learn more about production and sales for that building's resources.

I really don't know what the description of this game is going on about, calling itself an "Economic studio". While the economic model is interesting: unowned laborers decide where to live/work based on distance and cost/salary, the AI games have no settings or options, just everyone thrown in together on one tiny map where the AI will always make roughly the same decisions and outcomes, and build some strange-looking, tiny industrial blob. The tools to view the in-game economy that has developed are underpowered and unhelpful, and it is basically impossible to find the information you would need to micromanage your production.
Aside from that, the game, in its current state, is very limited. There are only a small handful of production chains, and a pathetically small maximum map size. The game advertises multiplayer, but my client wasn't able to connect to their matchmaking servers.
Running the game just to see what kind of economy the AI will set up can be mildly interesting the first time, but once that point is reached there's nothing to do aside from look at vague, scattered charts for an individual building's production, without any proper context of its relation to the economy as a whole, and without being able to discern any useful information for its impact on the game's economy. Once the AI fills up the incredibly tiny map you just have to sit around tweaking numbers and hoping one of the other companies goes out of business eventually so that it clears up a few tiny plots of land for whatever you had planned next.
Maybe I'm not supposed to look at this as a "Game", but given the lack of feedback for what's happening, I can't imagine it being a very useful "Economic simulator" either. It feels very unfinished, with very little to do and a terrible UI. The developer doesn't include any sort of tutorial or guide, and while it's not too hard to figure out what's happening on your own, this period of learning for yourself is very conveinent for the dev, since Steam has a no-refund policy past 2 hours of playtime.
