I have gone through TONS of games that were similar to Banished. Some were way off and some were just not quite there. I bought this game today hoping that it wouldn't disappoint me and it hasn't. I'm very impressed with the attention to detail and the many hours of enjoyment that I look forward to getting out of it.

Good game for sure. I wish there was a little bit more depth in trade, like having multiple trading docks instead of limiting it to 1. Overall I have enjoyed it a lot, the card system is cool and useful.

That will become a very good game. But at the moment I would recommend you to play Farthest Frontier instead as it is almost the same game but more advanced. If you already played Farthest Frontier buy this one. You are gonna like it.

Peacefully enjoyable city builder. If you like the idea of an ever expanding village while managing food production on top then the game is worth a try. Not nearly as harsh as other city builders or survival colony sims like Frostpunk or Oxygen Not Included, but I would say the relaxing charm to the city building has definitley hooked me. I hope they keep updating the game, expanding on what they already have and improving the villagers. (Improving the ai pathing, adding more depth to the bandit raids, maybe the abiltity to deform the terrain with villagers given enough in game time and increase their speed when walking on pathways) Otherwise a very nice game.

This game deserves way more attention. Since the dev of Banished finished that project long ago, Settlements Rising (and maybe Settlement Survival) are the closest experiences I’ve had that really capture that same vibe. Sure, it’s not perfect yet, but the frequent updates give me confidence it’ll keep improving. The UI is a bit unattractive at first, but you get used to it quickly, especially since the graphics and animations are really solid. I can already see myself sinking many more hours into this one. Good job devs! Keep it up :)
