Surprisingly challenging and addictive.
Banished is a very well executed mix of city simulator, management and survival game. You start in a world generated from a random seed, with 4 families with some starting resources. It's early spring and your first task is to have them prepare for and survive their first winter. You can define tasks - like resource collection, building or working in an activity like fishing - but can't control any individual directly: they go around trying to balance they tasks they have with fullfilling their needs (such as food and warmth) which they do at home where they keep a stock of food and heating materials. As simple as it sounds, this comes with an incredible amount of complexity, were choices in building positioning and non-renewable resource collection affect several variables. After the initial first winter, the games keeps forcing the player to engage and interact: balancing the production/collaction of all the needed things (food, fuel, source materials, medicine and efficiency boosting tools) given the available manpower and terrain. There is seemingly no stable state, with population growth and disasters often pushing a game out of balance. Replayability is good, with random world generation and different modes for terrain, climate and starting resources. All in all, a great game, about as entertaining as Minecraft and Don't Starve.
