I don't think it's a bad thing that the "game is no longer supported". It's not an online game and it doesn't have any bugs or broken features, at least none that I noticed. It's a complete game, it has adjustable difficulty, it has fun/funny achievements you can aim for, and the game mechanics are a fun mix of resource management and card deck optimization. (your villagers are the cards). I loved the art style, music, and themeing. Some people are saying it's repetitive, but I find it the perfect length for when I want to play for a few hours without getting trapped into an endless-gaming loop. I enjoyed seeing how genetics played out across generations (or manipulating them!) and loved making up little narratives for households. The ability to customize game elements like resource costs or illicit building effects was helpful so I could scale up the difficulty as I got used to the game, and create challenging saves or cozy easy-mode saves. It's a fun game from a creative team!

If you need a distraction, and have some 10£ (or less) to burn, it's good. The art style and BGM (even if repetitive) are nice. The gameplay it's not great, lacks depth or replaybility (even if it has potential), since the game seems abandoned by dev. ---{ Graphics }--- ☐ You forget what reality is ☐ Beautiful ☑ Good ☐ Decent ☐ Bad ☐ Don‘t look too long at it ☐ MS-DOS ---{ Gameplay }--- ☐ Very good ☐ Good ☐ It's just gameplay ☑ Mehh ☐ Watch paint dry instead ☐ Just don't ---{ Audio }--- ☐ Eargasm ☐ Very good ☑ Good ☐ Not too bad ☐ Bad ☐ I'm now deaf ---{ Audience }--- ☑ Kids ☑ Teens ☑ Adults ☑ Grandma ---{ PC Requirements }--- ☐ Check if you can run paint ☑ Potato ☐ Decent ☐ Fast ☐ Rich boi ☐ Ask NASA if they have a spare computer ---{ Game Size }--- ☐ Floppy Disk ☑ Old Fashioned ☐ Workable ☐ Big ☐ Will eat 15% of your 1TB hard drive ☐ You will want an entire hard drive to hold it ☐ You will need to invest in a black hole to hold all the data ---{ Difficulty }--- ☐ Just press 'W' ☑ Easy ☐ Easy to learn / Hard to master ☐ Significant brain usage ☐ Difficult ☐ Dark Souls ---{ Game Time }--- ☐ Long enough for a cup of coffee ☐ Short ☐ Average ☐ Long ☑ To infinity and beyond ---{ Price }--- ☐ It's free! ☐ Worth the price ☐ If it's on sale ☑ If u have some spare money left ☐ Not recommended ☐ You could also just burn your money ---{ ? / 10 }--- ☐ 1 ☐ 2 ☐ 3 ☐ 4 ☑ 5 ☐ 6 ☐ 7 ☐ 8 ☐ 9 ☐ 10

Concept is fun and game HAD potential but towards mid to end game, its design limitations starts to seep and surface. Key issues ruin the immersion and limit the potential of the game - mainly on the economy design. The matchmaking aspect is really fun but as the populace grows, the game becomes a heavy micro city management without much pay-off. * Limited buildings/job slots means you can't really expand, if there was an option to pay more for slots it would help * Not much ways to spend resources once you've stockpiled enough, at a certain point once you've scaled, not much to do and limits repeatability/replay value * The most important resource for fun- the hearts - for matchmaking is the hardest to earn even as you have more couples/scale * Youth always need mentorship/apprenticeship * People can't stay single even at old age? * Why at 18 they need a house? They can still stay with their families until they get married! So much potential, novel concept, fun at the start, but fizzles out quickly. Buy at sale only. No more dev support at this point.

This is surprisingly addicting! I think there's more to it than I am aware of, but I overall feel that this is a simple game to grasp and have fun with. I wish that after each game, you had stats: oldest villager, number of assassinations, couple that had the most children, etc. For replayablility, I think that after 5 or so games, I'm not really sure what else to do. Events are random so I don't feel I have much control to make each game very unique.

As a lover of social simulation and strategy games, I do enjoy Lakeburg a great deal (as demonstrated by my 140+ hours of game play at the time of writing this). You're free to customize certain aspects of your villagers including their hair, facial features, and names, and you can marry them off to suitors of your choice (the Matchmaker is a unique feature that I've never really seen in a game before). I appreciate the need to pay attention to the traits of villagers you recruit and wed to each other, as these affect how well they will perform at their assigned jobs, and these traits can be passed on to their children as well. This presents an interesting strategical challenge. I will say that this may not be for you if you're looking for "infinite" game play. Sure, there is an endless mode, meaning the game won't end after X amount of in-game years. However, there is a limited tree of unlockable buildings/careers, and the special events begin to feel repetitive after a while, but unfortunately, I don't believe the devs will be adding more content. That being said, I still recommend this game if you're looking for something "cozy" to play for a couple hours. If you work from home and you're having a slow day between projects/tasks, this is an easy and entertaining way to pass the time.
