I was going to rate this a 4 because in a lot of ways I think it's just not quite as good as Manufactoria, but then I got to the recursion levels. Manufactoria is still better on not having the problem be how to solve this without the right tools, and much more comprehensive test sets, so that you have to worry about solving the general problem rather than just the few examples provided. Manufactoria also has a certain "elegant simplicity" to it that this lacks. However, recursion is awesome, and having players re-use previously built boxes in later levels is also a nice touch. (Being able to twist outputs around whereever you want also nice for anyone who's tried to optimize a manufactoria grid.) So, 5 it is. What I'd really like is a game that combines the best parts of this and Manufactoria though.
For all the new players wanting advice on which starter deck they should choose, here's a good guide on the strengths and weaknesses of the various classes: http://www.kongregate.com/forums/276-ederon-trading-card-game/topics/325572-class-guide-by-testdr1ve
And remember, you'll get to play them all eventually.
