Description
Take control of a settlement of the first modern humans, guide them through the ages in their struggle for survival.

Dawn of Man is a survival/city-builder from the creators of Planetbase.

The game starts in the Stone Age, and takes you up to the Iron Age, spanning more than 10,000 years of human prehistory.

You will have to get your people to survive, expand and evolve, just like our ancestors, facing the challenges that the environment will throw at you.

Hunt

Animals were a vital source of food and resources for ancient humans. Use their meat to feed your people and their skin and bones to make clothing and craft the tools you will need to stay alive.
Confront Mammoths, Woolly Rhinos, Ancient Bison, Megaloceros, Cave Lions and other species that roamed the earth at the time.

Gather

Collect a variety resources from the environment: fruit, berries, water, wood, flint, stone, ores. Use them to prepare food, to make tools and to build structures in your settlement.

Plan for harsh times

Fish is more abundant in spring, berries and fruit can be collected in summer and animals are easier to come by when it's warm.
When winter comes, make sure to have enough non-perishable food and warm clothing in order to survive.

Expand and fortify your settlement

Build more homes and facilities for your people, in order to expand your population.
Construct fortifications and craft weapons, so you are ready for when the inevitable conflict comes.

Research Technologies

Each new discovery will make it easier for your settlement to be able to support larger populations, but will also bring new challenges: increased food demand, morale issues and more frequent raider attacks.

Build Megalithic Structures

Our ancestors were capable of incredible engineering feats: mine massive rocks from the environment, transport them using sledges and construct colossal stone structures.

Control Nature

Unlock farming technologies to grow your own vegetables, so you can feed large amounts of people. Domesticate animals to produce food, resources and provide increased muscle power.

Pretty shallow game

The concept is interesting and is fun seeing progression until you reach the second part of the tech tree, then the grind to check mark begins and the game starts to drag too much it becomes sooo boring. I reach the cooper age but by then I just got tired of it, I was just doing a check mark on the next thing I needed. THe issue is with how the tech tree stops progression and pace of the game for ex. to reach the cooper age once you need 20 tech points which is insane most of the time you are just fast forwarding to get the points by hunting x thing many times or building or collecting x thing many times and most of it is just 1 point. I really try to like this game but is soo boring after a few hours. My reccomendation get Banished which is better since you get fun facing challenges in that game like winter preparation, population control and resource management to grow your medieval town. Dawn of Men is very easy, the animals barely attack, raids are a joke, defenses are useles since anyone can go walk over mountains and once you get a decent population things run by itself alone. No challenge to keep engament sadly

Interesting cave man sim

From the stone age to the iron age. There's a learning curve but once you figure it out its a lot of fun
