Simple, yet genius

It's a settlement/village/town/city building sim, that in theory can go on nearly forever and has huge replayability. Manage your resources carefully and decide what will be the future needs of your people. You get it right, your settlement flourishes; get it wrong and it costs people their lives. And you *will* get it wrong at some point, but hang in there and the reward of seeing your management overcome these obstacles is worth it. It's possibly the most relaxing yet rewarding game I own, and it's one of the few I go back to again and again.

Absolutely enjoyable

The first settlement I started, I knew it was going to get real when one of my settlers died in childbirth. The winter was harsh, people froze to death or starved. I was not prepared. It didn't take too long to figure out how to balance expansion with development. Build too many houses too fast and you're out of lumber for firewood. More houses mean more families, more children and more mouths to feed. Children take time to grow up and don't begin to contribute to the settlement for many seasons. This game is not an economic simulator (even though you can trade goods), but rather a balancing act between nature and civilization. Wipe out the forests too fast and you lose your summer food supply. After you figure out how to start and sustain a village, the desire to really expand creeps in. This is where the game really takes off. A poorly planned year (or even season) could mean the difference between a thriving village or a desolate ruin. This game is beautiful to just watch. There is no combat. Your people can die prematurely in accidents or a medical issue. But, these random events are pretty rare and you feel a real loss when it happens, especially in the early game. I highly recommend playing this game.

Comfy citybuilding

I always wanted a city building game where all you have to do is build and manage. No armies to fight, no lands to defend, no nations to argue with... just sit back, build farms and houses. You biggest enemy in this game is starvation. The game graphics are okay (although I would prefer a more cartoon style artwork) and there are bunch of mods out there of you want to change something or add to the game. The UI however is basic and lacks style. Other than that this is the comfiest city building game out there.

A Dwarf Fortress clone without the charm

This is basically Dwarf Fortress with a good user interface and nice graphics and without any of the crazy fun. It's cute, but after a bit I find myself wondering why I'm playing. Then I go do something else.

Limited Depth

I skipped the tutorials and went straight in, and I made a lot of mistakes and had to restart several times, but I enjoyed learning how to play the game through trial and error. Eventually I reached a point where my population had grown enough that I needed a second temple, and then shortly thereafter, a second school, and then more houses and fields of crops. And then it sinks in very quickly that the game has essentially ended and that I'm starting again. That's the shortfall of this game. There's no tier after the first. You're able to build a decent town in just a few hours of gameplay and then after that there's nothing really new to unlock or discover and it becomes repetitive as you just expand by doing the same things over again. The other main issue I had was that once my population grew beyond 700 - 800 it became difficult to keep track of things because the UI is simple and doesn't cope well with the complexities of later game. A mine runs out of resources way on the other side of the map and I don't notice right away. The blacksmiths were depending on this resource. The blacksmiths quickly deplete stockpiles of this resource and then stops producing. Then the town quickly runs out of tools. Now everyone is running on half-efficiency and I can't get anything done. People can't quite harvest food or gather logs for firewood as quickly as they need to so now people are starving and freezing the death. Now I have fewer people and not enough to assign to the various important tasks. Now the town is doomed, trapped in a death spiral. All because a mine closed and I didn't notice for two minutes too many. I wish it were a little easier to keep ahead of things like this but the warning system in the game is just simple 'bong' noise that goes off so often for so many things that it gets tuned out.
