I dont know about this one. The game has a lot of content, but the layer-system and the combat + pathing are super janky. The AI may be one of the dumbest i have seen. I had a raid of 5 splitting apart into 3 waves (because of bad pathing). Also, you can use one guy and run in a circle, while your bowmen kill all raiders (who are running after the guy). If you setup the terrain correctly, the Ai will never even reach your settlers. The layer system (controlling camera view for different altitude levels) is not better. Not only do you have to press Strg+Scroll to go up and down ALL THE TIME if you want to see whats happening, the layers are also divided into decimals. That is the worst way to solve this. Atleast show me the topmost layer when there is nothing below. Or let me define a zone for my base and outside of that zone the topmost layer is always shown, so i dont have to scroll up the fucking mountains I still recommend this game because the it is in early access. And it being janky doesnt mean its not fun, im just starting to get tired due to the layer system and (to a lesser extent because of) the combat.

I first played this in 2021. There was a lot of potential but it was still rough, so I shelved it until I decided to retry last week. This is much improved game. Overall, it's not as good as Rimworld but it's got it's own charm / strengths. Being able to build no kidding castles is great and there are many, many things it does right. However, there are still a few features that are oddly lacking. - Not able to manually que multiple tasks like you can in Rimworld. This is extremely annoying. - Not being to mass assign weapons / clothing / etc, instead having to manually switch each settler from summer to winter clothing, for example. - Enemy raids will sometimes spawn right behind your base, in extremely close proximity. - Instead of 1 - 5 priorities for job, let us do 1 - 10 to allow for more granular control on tasks. - Storage restrictions are arbitrary. I can't place whatever I want on a shelf? Only certain classes of item? - I have yet to have a single mood issue with my settlers. The system exists but it's extremely easy to keep your settlers happy and interpersonal conflict doesn't occur like in Rimworld from what I've seen. I even intentionally made a rude settler who should be hard to get along with and she's still friends with everyone. Overall a great game and can't wait for more content. But I hope they address some of these core issues, particularly with commands.

I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS GAME! I'm a huge fan of RimWorld, but one aspect that always annoyed me was how the raids became increasingly powerful over time, often resulting in enemies landing pods right on my house or mountain base. Because of this, I wished for a game similar to RimWorld that maintained a more primitive setting. When I discovered this game, it turned out to be exactly what I was looking for. So far, I'm having a great time with it—no complaints at all!.

I have 1000 hours in Rimworld I got this game since it scratches that same itch, but I have to say it does more than that. At first I thought this was just a Medieval Rimworld clone but it really stands on its own as a game. I'm having a good time and the devs pump out content. If there are any early Rimworld players out there, they know it took time for it to be the massive game we know it for today. So give this game a chance and let the devs cook

Decided to give this game a go after it has been in my bought games list for some time now. Boght it a while back since it reminded me a mix of the games RimWold + Timber And Stone. My goodness, it feels a good game for an Alpha phase. Think i only had like two crashes in the 90 in-game hours. I played an easy game but the first winter was still challenging. After i learned some tricks, built some shacks and an underground kitchen and leveled up my tech, it started to go uphill. There is always something to do in the game. Next thing you know the sun starts to come up irl outside :/ After watching TactiCat youtube video, i decided to build my own moat and a gatehouse castle with the portcullis and all. After arming my men with heavy crossbows no enemies have reached inside! Easy battles - maybe even too easy. In the future, i hope the battle mechanics keeps getting better. For example they should attack together or in different sides. Currently they trickle in one by one and they also get shot one by one. I was afraid they would build their own brides over the ditches or bring ladders to climb my walls - or even dig through them... But no, they just pick the easiest route - meaning the one that is full of traps and leads them to a killbox that is guarded by crossbows on three sides. Also would love to see some additions such as ledgers to farming plots to mark when to start sowing and cutting, or to be able to set production levels while selecting multiple production stations (icebox and brick-maker comes to mind). Maybe nerf apple tree production a bit. Overall, a game with very high potential that is playable in its alfa state. Hope it gets more additions in the future.
