Plays like top down terraria but you get an army of villagers to do the boring stuff. Hate farming? Tell the villagers to do it. Hate chest sorting? Have the villagers to sort it. Hate mining? Tell the villagers to do it.

Bought it because I wanted something cheap to play with a friend. It was only €7.50, so that satisfied the first criteria. My friend was able to join my world immediately without having to wrestle the Port Forwarding Demon into submission. Criteria 2 fulfilled, great success. I assumed this would just be a run of the mill survival craft game, but I was wrong. This is more like a blend of Stardew Valley, Core Keeper and Rim World. After playing for an hour I discovered I can assign a settler as a sort of Chest Mule and have them sort through the mountains of junk I haul back from my spelunking adventures. That's it gentlemen, the genre has peaked here. Going forward, any survival crafting game I play that doesn't have a Chest Mule system is going to feel like I'm playing a degenerate, stone-age game for prehistoric boomers. I henceforth refuse to manually sort through any of my own adventuring crap in any future game I play. This game is really good. Don't think about it, just buy it.

This is one of very few games I've played through early access that's gotten to open release without ruining my opinion of either the game or the developer. Gameplay is a mashup of Rimworld's colony control and camera placement with Terraria's progression and gameplay style. Progression and combat are reasonably challenging, with mercy mechanics to help bypass bottlenecks where skill and gear alone aren't getting the job done. Honestly, my only real complaint here is that there's not more game to play - an issue that, as with both its primary inspirations, will become less and less of an issue as time goes on, and development - by both the dev and the modding community - continues. The dev happens to also be one of the most humble, straightforward and intelligent I've seen in this industry across 20ish years of playing games on steam. In most feedback pipelines for EA projects, ideas are either largely ignored or distorted until they're unrecognisable by the time they reach implementation. Community ideas that have circulated in this game's following have largely found their way into play, with active communication from the developer throughout pretty much the entirety of the game's development. There's not all that many games in my library that I have absolutely zero criticism for, and that's doubly true for developers.

[*] NPC management works well [*] Automation makes the game not tedious [*] Cannot defeat a boss? Hey boss, you wanna get bullied by a party of 10+ NPCs? [*] Insufficient inventory slots? No worries! We have a void pouch to store items in another dimension! [*] too many types of potions/arrows/bullets? No worries! we have potion/ammo bags to hold them all! [*] too many potion types and too tedious to use them one by one? One key press to use them all! While other reviews summarise the pros well, I want to specifically point out one thing that makes this game so superior. This game values the player's time. This game allows the player to focus on what the player wants to focus. Different types of NPCs can handle a specific aspect of this game. For example, miners can be sent to a mining trip to get ores, so that the player do not need to do that. Want some meat? Hunters are ready! Want some fish? Anglers to the rescue! One step further, what if a player wants to minimise exploring and focus solely on base building? No problem! The explorer NPC can bring what ought to be found in caves back to the player! This game is so good not just by adding contents, but also by providing ways to subtract in-game elements that are less favourable to a player. In my opinion, if in the future, the game development continues like Terraria, this will be the "Game of the Decade" eventually.

Think Rimworld meets Terraria, fun base builder/manager with boss progression and occasional invasion, and gives that nice feeling of being over-powered when backtracking enemies, but still gives you a challenge with the current level stuff
