Great Game in Prerelease State
I loved the good old Settlers (especially 2), watching the carriers to move stuff around, but there you had to be quick, otherwise your opponents would kill you. And this is a thing I really like on Foundation - it has such a nice peaceful atmosphere! Foundation has a clever design and it will punish you for your design failures, but overall you decide the speed of your progression and you set your own objectives. Nicely done graphics and the gaming mechanisms are working well. The idea, that you may create customized buildings (churches, castles and ins) is not new, but you can re-size parts of the buildings and based on that the resource costs and effects of the whole building change, which is something I did not see anywhere else. I dislike the implementation of Christmas holiday, when the whole economy goes bankrupt for few weeks, and the seasons are not great either, but one needs to keep in mind the game is still in development.

Great citybuilder with some minor issues
just a quick review so far, after backing it a year ago: extremely nice progression, but some bugs are persistent, like the "no food" when both food is in storage and vendors actually are selling, in the shop and wares are in the shop. Otherwise great game!
