Banished
Description
Banished is a city building game where you control a group of exiled people who are restarting their
lives in the wilderness. They have only the clothes on their backs and a cart filled with supplies
from their homeland.
The townspeople work, build, get older, have children, and eventually die. Keeping them healthy, happy, and fed are essential to making a successful town grow. Any structure can be built at any time, provided that your people have collected the resources to do so.
There are many occupations that the people can perform from farming, hunting, and blacksmithing, to fishing, teaching, and healing. You can choose to replant forests, mine for iron, and quarry for rock, and more!

New city-builder Banished is the most fun you'll have simulating famine all year.

A nice change of pace for city-builders, but it loses momentum once the immediate urgency of survival goes away.

Fantastic game
I will keep this review short and sweet... In Banished you start with a group of "banished" folks that are in need of a new place to start over. This game is a city builder, so with that in mind start building. As your town grows you will need to balance population with food resources, build cemeteries for the dead, and even trade with other towns. The game is fun, beautiful, and challenging. See how many people you can have in your town, my best was 200, then all out social collapse and everyone died. 10/10 recommend to all gamers.

It's a massage for your brain.
Most and happiest time spent playing a game in 2014. For time comparison, not satisfaction, I put as much effort into FFXIV, Civ 5, and that's about it.
