I waited for a long time for the price of this to drop and grabbed it for less than $10. The game is beautifully designed and easy to navigate. I like the idea of it and the era it's based in. I've started a few villages as I'm figuring out the best methods but so far nothing is making me think "I want to play Banished some more". The game moves super slow, even at 10x speed. Villagers die of starvation even though there's plenty of food in the barn and homes, or they freeze. There's no real goal or end game. I'm sure I'll kill more time in it as SimCity was abandoned long ago with major bugs. But this would not be worth the regular $20, grab it for $5 like I did.
