Dec. 2021
I want more than 30 turns... I NEED more than 30 turns! Awesome game. I see where a lot of influence comes from: board games, some card games, a lot of sci fi (huge fan of Robinson's Mars Trilogy). I've been looking and hoping for a game to bring back something like Sim Earth. This may be a close contender.
