This game is begging for Controller Support. Because this game is perfect for the steam deck, the controls are just a little too finicky at the moment. Getting some nice standard stick/D-pad with shoulders to swap giant would be amazing. It's a puzzle game with the skin of a god game. You hand craft a world for up to 3 villages so far, and create ecosystems around them to support their needs to allow the villages to grow. more advanced fauna/minerals needing more biodiversity and higher level plots. it's not the most involved thing ever but its a very Fun and enjoyable little game. Which is why I think the need to work on proper steam deck support because while I have a good PC this is best served as a hand held with the freedom hand held brings. it's just It still uses mouse controls on steam deck which like i said not the smoothest experience.

Reus 2 is a better sequel to Reus than most sequels are to anything. Lots of games, especially nostalgic properties, just get sequels for the sake of making sequels. Reus 2, however, exists to be the Reus that the original Reus was not. I considered the original Reus to be an excellent puzzle game. Upon hearing about Reus 2, I was a little afraid that the changes the developers would make to the core gameplay would be too fundamental and detract from the original vision of Reus 1. I couldn't be any more wrong. The original game was balanced, but Reus 2 FEELS balanced. I accepted Reus 1's time limit and greed system as "just how Reus works," but Reus 2 shows us that neither of those things were necessary to make a beautiful, stimulating puzzle game. I think I know how the first blacksmiths felt when finding out they could extract iron from rocks. They were definitely fans of the rocks, but the SEQUEL to rocks is so much better for... well, everything. Reus 2 is so good that it almost makes Reus 1 obsolete. Almost.

Where to start. Generally, I don't well with complex games, with complex systems. I'm old, and my brain is essentially turning in to oatmeal. But..there are some gameplay mechanics that I REALLY like. I would like to provide some insights on why you should strongly consider purchasing this game. First is the presentation. Brightly colored, with good graphics. It is a very cheerful looking game, and tends to soften the complexity somewhat. Don't let that fool you. Second..as you play, you start with a limited number of options, for flora, fauna, and minerals. As you complete each game, you will unlock higher levels of each, to be used in the next gameplay session. This can be considered a "roguelite" in that sense. Even a failed game, where you don't do as well as you would like provides a benefit in the next game. A very real sense of progression. Next is the gameplay itself. It is turn based, and I find myself looking at all options to place my next piece. Do I go with a rabbit, to generate some additional food? Do I upgrade the land, to place more advanced (and more lucrative!!) creatures. There are only about ten options per turn, with a countdown timer. As you go through each age, you have a finite number of actions, before you progress. Actions need to be carefully considered, to gain the greatest benefit from that era. You will be graded, and the better you do in each era DIRECTLY affects the quality of the unlocks from that session, to be used downstream. The level three creatures or minerals are quite powerful...even game changing. If you can bring one of these bad boys into your world, you may see MASSIVE benefits, with huge increases in science, food, or money. Each of your mini cities has a ruler, and if you satisfy their requirements, you are given a more difficult task to complete for them. You, as the God-Ruler, start as one of several archetypes, with five mini-Gods (or Titans, if you prefer), giving you the ability to terraform the planet to your liking. You will have the ability to increase the physical size of each city, as well as upgrading the land to accept a higher tier of creatures. A particularly elegant move, or a finesse play, or a well-thought plan is a fun thing to see, as a HUGE pile of science, food, or money is deposited into a cities' accounts. Not sure why you're still reading me ramble on...go buy the game. It has VERY high reviews, for a REASON..and if an old dude like me (born in the Eisenhower administration, the FIRST one) can figure this one out, so can you!

You might notice that I returned this game, but I'm still recommending it. Why? Well the reason for that is simple. This game is great at what is does, but what is does is not what I wanted out of it. You use 3 gods to interact with a world. You create biomes, have people settle into villages, and progress through the ages. This sounds like a God game + colony sim, right? Wrong! This game is a puzzle game first and foremost. This is a city builder the same way Dorfromantik is a city builder. You are placing minerals, plants, and animals that each have adjacency bonuses based on what is placed next to them and you are trying to optimize each village to complete objectives for them based on their ideals that you chose when you placed the village. You have a limited number of moves until the current era ends and if you have not optimized your villages(s) enough, then the game ends. Just like running out of tiles in Dorfromantik. I want to reiterate that this game is great, if you are looking for a game that is like if a 2D Civ game was Dorfromantik-ified. I wanted a game that was a Colony sim God Game like Black and White 2. This is not that

I don't remember exactly what I disliked about Reus 1 since it was so long ago and I haven't re-played it, but I think it was because the game felt like it should be turn-based but was real-time instead. Whatever the case, Reus 2 seems to fix it. I'm rather enjoying this. It's a very good puzzle-strategy game. Feels like something that could be a single player boardgame, but still feels more at a home as a digital game. I would love for some QoL and UI improvements, but still - it's already an interesting game that I find easy to recommend.
