This game is unique among the city builds, it has a different vibe, I usually jump in to play from time to time always keep it installed. The game is done in sessions, not total cities for hours upon hours like games such as banished or settlement survival, specific goals, achieve them, win.

I absolutely love this game. It gives hints, but the joy is in the discovery. The more you unlock the more the complexitiy of the world grows. There is a rather steep learning curve, but this game is beautiful. I appriciate that there is cobat, but that its mostly hands off if I choose. I often play at night one handed with my baby sleeping in my arms. The diversity and discovery of slowly unlocking the world keeps me coming back. I enjoy most that I am challenged. I don't win every game, but I learn from every game. Bravo!

This is a great fusion of rogue-like and RTS/city builder elements. Each game is fairly short, but you are forced to use a randomly determined set of technologies rather than the same building(s) each run. This leads to really creative opportunities and fun ways to experiment with your environment, but also leads to janky interactions and goofy moments. If you are willing to embrace some silly experiences and want lots of variation on your small-scale RTS/city builder? This game is a great pickup.

It's a very interesting game. It surprises me with its events, I think the developer has achieved something special. The game has a natural feeling, a spirit of its own. But it also has many bugs. I would like the developer to make a bigger expansion or a game with similar content but on a bigger level
