Great Game
I liked the setting of the game and how it looked in a Let's Play, so I decided to buy it. As I started playing it I noticed that I did not know how to interact with the game properly and how the mechanics worked. I did not see a manual and the game did not introduce me into the mechanics. You have to find out where the ingame tips are and which you want to read and then how to transfer that to the game. So this is basically a learning by doing approach. Then I had to get used to the resource management which is pretty complex and intertwined: You have to balance coal, wood, steel, raw food, food rations with a finite number of workers which you have to keep warm and healthy and you have to handle morale while building the settlement. The technology tree is pretty wide: you can unlock new buildings, improve efficiencies unlock new technology tiers and have to think about short- and longterm goals. You also have lots of political choices that heavily influence morale and game mechanics. The first time you will likely fail pretty soon. The second and third time you may have found a way to survive the campaign. And then you will ask yourself if that was just a thrilling game or a psychological experiment. Was it really necessary to go that far? Or did the game just trick you into these choices? (ok just a couple more days to survive, morale is (looks?) really, really bad, do I sign this horrid, grave law that might give me just one more day of survival... whose survival? The people in the game or my own as their leader? Do I want to win that badly? YES - oppression for everyone, I am your god-sent master, bow to me or die!) So this is how it goes :-) Or maybe you find another solution. This made the game worth it's money. Some people feel disconnected to the people but this is a strategy game, not an RPG. Unless you want to test out all possible choices and technologies, the campaign ends after an evening of game time. But the included DLC provides more campaigns.
