This is possibly the best update the game has received to date.
Mother wants to make it easier for players to rule their Utopias, so It has provided the game with many new options to quickly find unhappy, unproductive or outright traitorous citizens (among other things), at the click of a button. Research turns have been reduced. This updare also offers more information to the player, and improved graphics.
All these changes have been focused on making the game even more fun.
