sooooo....i've been "burned" by this group before in prior games --- however, after a decent run with all the positive reviews i figured i'd give it one more shot. the game is fun, relaxing, engaging and sometimes frustrating and challenging :) but its good! the update releases and fixes have been amazing! *** continuing the review several months in and the game is still fun. the developers constantly update and fix items and the communication is good in the discord. my only complain is that the combat is just god awful....it just sucks. you will find people at both ends of the spectrum here. the die-hard fans who love the game no matter what will applaud it and destroy you if you complain about it but most other people all over agree that the combat needs help. that being said i do think it will eventually get there and it is worth supporting. *** for the first time EVER in any game after i submitted a bug, i actually got an email that it was under investigation!! THEN i got an email informing me the fix was implemented in a preview build and will be implemented in the next release!!! this type of communication has NEVER happened to me. keep it up! i sort of think this will turn out to be a really great game!

It is a good game for Early access, quite balanced, and no bugs detected yet, but minor fixes are still needed. What I want to see Is the ability to build Walls and fortifications and defend your settlement from raids. Also, the ability to lay siege! This would make the game AWESOME! please vote

65 Hours in mostly playing a solo campaign and about 5 hours of the start of duo and here is my take: Good bits: The game has some incredibly deep systems and the refreshing survival risk factor of raiding bandits and relatively difficult combat (especially if outnumbered) rather than the usual hunger, thirst and cold makes the game incredibly fun to play. The game is a grind, there is no getting away from that but incredibly rewarding when you hit key milestones like liberating the first town from ruthless money hungry brigands or build your massive town hall. The storage system and automated villager working service is incredibly intuitive when you get going with it, with a priority system both within the buildings themselves, storage and your villagers it allows you to set limits and priorities to resources and crafting that I haven't seen in similar games. 'Bad' bits: These are a few gripes I have, fully understanding the game is in early access as I type this: - As you progress to mid-end game and want to liberate the southern villages you are pretty much forced to move or making significant army outposts to fight off the never ending waves of reclamation brigand parties looking to get the towns back. Most people will have built a flourishing town in the northern region of the game, well away from the brigand headquarters (where the waves spawn from) making it tough and time consuming to March an Army down to defend the southern towns before the brigands reach them. Moving an entire town is an incredibly time consuming. I know that there is a road map for mounts to be added to the game (hopefully) which would make this easier but having the ability to fast travel an army (evening if it was capped or you could build just ONE special travel sign to move troops would be great. - Storage caps - I feel these are a little low, particularly the barn given the time between tier 2 and 3 means you need to build a fair few of them. I appreciate you can mod the game to increase these but many of us would rather not. Co-op: I was pleasantly surprised with the co-op experience of this game, it was incredibly smooth with a shared quest line, renown, gold and storage. You really feel like you are in the journey this game takes you on together. You do have to host the game and locally save it so you will need to play when the original host is online, but honestly this is the kind of game you would both (or all) want to be involved in at every stage. Playing co-op allows you to take on threats you would struggle with in the early game much sooner. Summary: If you enjoy games like medieval dynasty then you will fall in love with this game, I am incredibly impressed given it is in the early stage of early access. Well worth the money.

This game is a slow grind. It is not for everyone, but I am 13 hours in, Six companions deep and as I go to bed at 4am, This is a straight up addiction. The Grind is slow and the payoff is huge, building my first major building, Moving my people from stick huts on the ground into large buildings with doors feels amazing. The AI is great and put in the work to help. I look forward to working my way through the tech tree and charging a castle weeks from now when I am done building up my small camp to a large village. Well done, easiest 10/10 I have ever given a game.
