      Reminds me of Minecraft meets Raft with their own original content mixed. The options are much like Minecraft mode options before you start game-play like, Peaceful, Standard, and Hard with other more specific options. Game-play is casual you don't feel rushed or bogged down. Menus and controls are pretty easy. There are some options within the menus I have a hard time finding without clicking the notification for it. Such as the details of traits or equipped items for settlers. Or a detailed menu to see who/what needs more energy, fuel, food..etc and how much I have and how it's distributed. If there is a way I'm not seeing it. So if you know post a comment!

      This is a chill to play game, nothing too crazy. Yes, it has some jank, yes sometimes it doesn't make a whole lotta' sense. The graphics are fine for what it is, the music is fine, and once you get through enough of it, it's just a relaxed colony sim with a couple levels of play involved--growing and supporting your city, then diving under it, and then exploring the islands around you. I can see how it puts some people off, but there are absolutely worse ways to spend your time than this. Give it a try if you are into city builders/colony sims.

      Played this game in early access and enjoyed it, so I was excited to see 1.0 release! I think a lot of the negative review are regarding its multiplayer function, or lack thereof. However, as someone who mainly plays singleplayer games, I enjoyed this a lot. The comprehensive tutorial is also completely optional and easy to ignore. I found it helpful since I like a little bit of direction in my sandbox games. Though overall I'd say this game has a laid-back, easy vibe, there is lots of grinding, especially as the game progresses, so if you're not into that, I'd say maybe pass on this one. I don't normally review, but when I saw the reviews were mixed for 1.0, I wanted to give a little shoutout to a game that I thoroughly enjoyed and plan to continue playing.

      So, it's not a bad game. Good concept in the builder genre and a lot to do. I liked it for the time that I played it. Unfortunately, it tends to get really grindy toward the end game. I finally got bogged down to much to want to continue. I might return to it when it gets out of EA, hopefully with some quality of life improvements.

      Despite reading the reviews that said not to buy this for multiplayer, my husband and i wanted to give it a shot because it looked like exactly the type of game we liked to play together. After several hours, I agree... don't buy this if you want multiplayer. It's fun and addictive solo, but there are too many bugs in the multiplayer to enjoy it together. We had to move on to something else to play together. BUT, if multiplayer isn't your thing, this game is relaxing and fun.
