Jan. 2026

watched multiple youtubers play his game at around 2017-2018, I loved watching them play the game, and it was so addicting to watch them as a kid, and watching them grow massive kingdoms filled with thousands of sla- fair workers. also seeing thousands of zombies... after a while I forgot about the game, until a year ago, I remember about it, but at that time I didn't have a PC... until now... GREAT game if you like a simple lay back game about making people do jobs with their only payment being a bowl of berries, or if you felling fancy, some bread. 10/10 (the youtuber I watched was lazar beam, and some others I forgot.)

Easily one of my favorite games. I've been playing it for years. The development team is not above redoing entire sections of the game to make it better and better. The pair of them work hard and it shows. They care a lot about the game, and it is a labor of love. The game has come a long way since I first started playing it. Some major good improvements, some bad improvements that get revised and fixed. The game in its current state at the end of 2025 is a complete game, but the developers have plans for so much more. The game is fun and challenging, while not being overly complicated. There are some places that need little more attention, but overall it is a pretty good game and I have a couple thousand hours in it. It is often compared to Minecraft, but it has some significant differences. The biggest difference is Minecraft is about you, this is about your Colonists. You build defenses for them. They do most of the crafting, most of the guarding, etc. You don't go into a mine to gather resources, the Colonists do. You don't refine ore into metal, the colonists do that for you. Your task is to design and build. You build castles and houses, or whatever it is your heart desires.

I love this game. It's a Minecraft/Tower Defense hybrid in the best way. Something is wrong however with the way the game saves files to the steam cloud. I have now lost one game with 20+ hours of game play and now another with 60+ hours, I literally can't play it anymore because it turns my stomach to think I could play for three entire days worth of time and lose all progress at the drop of a hat. I will pine for this game but probably never play again unless they add a saved game cache.
