One of the best games EVER, made by a SOLO DEVELOPER(!), playing 3d chess even on easier difficulty. It's amazing, i learn so much, go back, outsmarting the "4 enemies a.k.a the domains of fear, cold, ect" SO FUN, so much personality, you unlock things by playing. Every playthrough is SO SO good and different. A REAL roquelike. 12/10. Replayability is off the charts, it looks SO good, the humor, also it's so unique with elders not remembering things and thats why the research and stuf in not complete cuz they need things to remember things. It's really one of the beste games ever. I am SO happy i get to play this game!! Can't wait to play with the next unlocked Elder and play a completely different game with my lovely Pipss i miss them already <3

Its a game that has two major hurdles, figuring out what it expects of you, then discovering the aspects that make the game have an enduring difficulty since the first playthrough plays with easy numbers. Talking too much about the mechanics here spoils a lot of the experience, given, just discovering whats worth doing is a big part of the early mystery of the game. After that its pretty damn good. However, I recommend to most new players to avoid the "Long" setting until you know what you are doing, even the turn end animations can take a long time so 500 turns is a big time commitment. If I had one complaint longer game modes do have a problem that you can run out of space very easily, it would be nice is map size scaled with game length, and maybe if there was an option on really long marathon game modes the clouds that block you from building out start out closer and expand to reveal more map with the pages of the prophecy. (Along with pipulation factor.) This would make sure that you still have things to do in longer stories as it can be easy to fill out the map almost completely and have far less to do than what the developers probably intended.

dotAGE is a stressful and addictive. You started the game, blinked then 3 hours passed. I learnt to set a 30 minutes alarm to keep track of time. Yet here I am coming back for more. This is not a casual game. From the first 15 mins of the demo, now I am 200+ hours in. If you're hesitating, try the demo out! It's been 2 years since purchase and I'm still loving it. Excited to see more DLC! To describe in 3 words: Cute, Chaotic and unpredictable.

One nice thing about strategy games like DotAGE is that they can help exercise the decision making parts of your brain, potentially delaying or preventing dotage Anyway this game is incredible. If village building centered around technology advancement, structure placement/upgrades, and strategic resource management sounds at all fun to you, look no further. It is also beautiful and charming with nice chill music

This is a perfect combination of sim builder, city management and puzzle, as the game gets you to not just manage your resources, but do it strategically in response to impending "doom" events. The game always keeps you moving and adapting, planning several turns ahead to make sure you aren't blasted by the capricious fates. In order to avoid "fear" events, you'll have to stockpile "hope." In order to overcome "sickness" events, you'll have to shift your focus to "health." Most of these events can be predicted by your elder's use of prophecy, but if you neglect one of these domains for too long, you'll get a sudden, unforeseen "reckoning" event. Add to this, of course, the normal food management, tech trees, and seasonal dangers common in city management sims. One of the most creative aspects of the game, however, and the one that really adds a "puzzle" dimension, is the importance of building-placement. In order to optimize your village and its production, you'll want to make sure certain buildings are clustered together or adjacent, while others are not adjacent. It starts off relatively simple, but becomes fiendishly difficult as the game progresses towards the Apocalypse. Actually, if you know what you're doing and can stay on top of the demands, it's not too difficult (on normal), but the problems can really snowball if you make a critical error. It might have you pulling your hair out as you realize you don't have enough hemp to make leather to make cloaks to survive the winter, and you should have planned ahead fifty turns ago. Now you're starving because you had to re-task a dozen pips to burning a dozen little bonfires--and you failed the event anyway, meaning now in addition to have no food, half your village is iced over and your pips have become pipsicles, and you won't have enough resources to both unfreeze your village and prepare for the coming sickness event. It's that kinda game. You've been warned! But man if it isn't incredibly fun and addictive.
