About
Take control of a settlement of the first modern humans, guide them through the ages in their struggle for survival.
Dawn of Man is a survival/city-builder from the creators of Planetbase.
The game starts in the Stone Age, and takes you up to the Iron Age, spanning more than 10,000 years of human prehistory.
You will have to get your people to survive, expand and evolve, just like our ancestors, facing the challenges that the environment will throw at you.
Animals were a vital source of food and resources for ancient humans. Use their meat to feed your people and their skin and bones to make clothing and craft the tools you will need to stay alive.
Confront Mammoths, Woolly Rhinos, Ancient Bison, Megaloceros, Cave Lions and other species that roamed the earth at the time.
Collect a variety resources from the environment: fruit, berries, water, wood, flint, stone, ores. Use them to prepare food, to make tools and to build structures in your settlement.
Fish is more abundant in spring, berries and fruit can be collected in summer and animals are easier to come by when it's warm.
When winter comes, make sure to have enough non-perishable food and warm clothing in order to survive.
Build more homes and facilities for your people, in order to expand your population.
Construct fortifications and craft weapons, so you are ready for when the inevitable conflict comes.
Each new discovery will make it easier for your settlement to be able to support larger populations, but will also bring new challenges: increased food demand, morale issues and more frequent raider attacks.
Our ancestors were capable of incredible engineering feats: mine massive rocks from the environment, transport them using sledges and construct colossal stone structures.
Unlock farming technologies to grow your own vegetables, so you can feed large amounts of people. Domesticate animals to produce food, resources and provide increased muscle power.

Pinchi juego todo hermoso, ojalá sus creadores le dieran más soporte:( al juego le quedaría excelente una actualización para poder modificar el terreno <3 sé que sólo es un deseo pero ojalá me leyeraaaaan
É bem divertido e bonito, mas chega um ponto na gameplay em que você fica só esperando o tempo passar (bastante tempo) pra juntar pontos de XP e desbloquear novas tecnologias.

不错,算是为童年补票了,要是有新内容就更好了
I loved playing the game, but the moment I installed it on another PC, my save game from my main Desktop PC is not playable to my other PC... Did I do something wrong? Is there something in the settings?
Sympatyczny prehistoryczny city builder.
I like it. The menu interface graphics are a bit clunky for my taste, but the game itself is actually quite fun - and really hard I feel haha. Advancing to next eras is no dance on roses and I am sure there must be something I am not getting because the constant keeping enough food, wood, sticks, stones, flints, making weapons and tools because they degenerate while keeping a steady workload is a bit tricky to understand and balance. Nonetheless, I am enjoying myself and think it is a fun game, maybe a bit too micro managing. I only experienced one bug during tutorial (which was quite long, to the point of boring) so for me the game is running smoothly and graphics are good.
I won't lie, the learning curve is steep. That being said, no trials in the game are unavoidable. Wolves attacking your villagers? Form large parties. Blight affecting your crops? Don't do monoculture. Harsh winters? Make sure your people have extra clothes at all times. The game reflects the struggles of early civilization, but to a much lesser degree if you read up on history. If you're itching for a unique city-builder based in pre-early history, this is the game you want.
