I have seen this game on yt lp.
One has to decide where on map to set the start place. Am I close to water, next to mining, can I defend the area, is there enough food or trees? All progress and efficiency depend on the decision where to start. Building housing, production places, defend walls, gathering and mining, hunting and much more let your settlement prosper or fail. Defending can be performed by dogfight or bow soldiers. Places to adore gods needs to be build for villagers. To build tools there is a assembly line that becomes more complex with progress for better tools.
All this makes this game interesting to solve problems and make progress easier.
Graphic is really good. It makes fun to see villagers to perform their job you have them assigned to.
