TownsFolk

There are a lot of good bones in this game, and I enjoyed the demo, but as of right now I can't recommend it, even though it's so close to being a game I'd really love. There is simply too much punishing RNG in the moment to be enjoyable. For example, far too often I've had a run where I reveal a tile and oops, without warning it's a volcano or a curse that spreads fire or disease across the entire colony, wiping it out without any way to stop it (there's technically a way to stop it, but it takes so many resources that trying to stop it will also kill you), or suddenly making your resources a -50 (which also results in a rapid death spiral unless you have extremely high yields, because the strict time limit to recover from missing resources is incredibly short). RNG can also ruin your run by giving you no reasonable places to build things you need (by only giving you water tiles or hordes of bears when you need to build houses at the start of the game), and those are only a few examples of the RNG issues. There are also some unfinished elements (for example, the game over screen has filler text that clearly was supposed to be replaced before launch). I'd love to get further into the game, explore the tech tree more, and see what interesting things can be built; it's a great concept, the art is lovely, and the idea of adding in more roguelike elements to a dorfromantik-like city builder absolutely appeals to me. Unfortunately, it's such an unsatisfying slog to fight against the RNG and the difficulty is far too overtuned right right now; it needs another balancing pass, especially for the early parts of the campaign. I do want to give it another chance if it does get an overhaul down the road, but it's not worth dealing with the RNG until that happens.

Great game, the tutorial explains the game clearly. The game itself is great, it puts you into thinking and it is not too dificult

Obnoxiously luck-based. You can get up to the point where the king demands over 140 population and food in spite of you having about 15 population and +4 per turn with 10 turns to go. You somehow manage to pull everything together so you'll make it with one turn to spare, and then a random event hits you with the choice between losing 80 population or -12 food for 10 turns. There's a campaign mode, but the game can give you an absolutely unplayable start, like if you have wolves two tiles away from your town hall that get revealed after you built the only housing you can afford, so you're now in an irrecoverable death spiral with no resources because all the other tiles are mountains or oceans so you have almost no population, no food, and no means of gaining any while your population is eaten by wolves. In skirmish mode, this just leads to frequent restarts until you get a good start, (which is already a plague on the Diet Civiilzation subgenre,) but in campaign mode, this ruins a run that you've played for hours. Add to this, the "Civpedia" of this game is blank until you actually build a building. (And you need to unlock the information on buildings for EACH FACTION, so starting a new faction sends you back to completely wandering blind.) Watering holes give you nothing if you look at them in the build menu, but they hint at having some "adjacency bonus." How much? Does it work with goat ranches or just farms? No way to know until you commit to a risk in your campaign run where being surprised by something will ruin all the progress you've made over the course of the entire game! The game is filled with events involving random ruin-type objects, and the results of interacting with them is just purely a matter of losing the game because of them until you memorize the right answers. The "riddles" make no sense, like "this obelisk flashes random elements, arrange the elements properly" with ZERO clue what order you're actually supposed to put them in, and you go to -30 faith with no churches if you guess wrong. It's a game with no good ideas on how to actually make interesting decisions, so they make the outcomes blind until you lose enough times you memorize the answers and the game apparently becomes easy, but then, there's nothing else to this game, so it's just boring. The only thing this game has to be "challenging" is to be absurdly cryptic and random in ways that ruin your run completely out of nowhere instead of giving you any fighting chance to actually reverse things. It's the worst kind of "strategy" game, one where you can't strategize to deal with the randomness, you just have to hope you have stockpiles enough to survive it while being completely up to the whims of RNGesus. Go play Hexarchy, instead - they know how to make a game that's random with the means for players to actually manipulate the odds.

いいチュートリアルだったから体験版からそのまま買ったよ。

Cool game, mechanics are well thought out and its pleasant to play

[h1]游戏简介[/h1] 本作是一款由Short Circuit Studios制作，Snapbreak发行的资源管理向生存策略游戏，玩家将在游戏中扮演定居点的领导者，在王国国王的许可下带领自己的人民踏入未知的世界，在一片非人类活动的地区克服严峻挑战，从头发展繁荣的定居点，合理管理使用五种资源的获得数量和库存，使用最小代价来应对各种动态事件、天灾以及敌人入侵，并且永远不要忘记向王国进贡！ [h1]游玩模式[/h1] 游戏有战役、遭遇战（征服）和谜题三种类型的游玩模式，其中战役模式是官方在五大区域中精心地打造任务和地理类型制作出来的，新玩家游玩此模式能有从简单到难的难度渐进体验，玩家在此模式刚开始只能选择简单的两大区域中的一块开始挑战，区域中有不同地理的地块，玩家可以根据手头习惯打法和解锁的加成卡来抉择，当然从零开始的聚落建设是不可避免的，这也是游戏的一部分乐趣所在，虽然都是同一个类型的区域，不过每次开始都会有蕴含新的风险、奖励，以及塑造故事选择，有局外成长和单纯装饰类型的解锁内容，看自己喜好解锁即可。 遭遇战（征服）模式属于无限游戏体验，不会出现战役完成挑战目标（国王的任务要求）后空荡荡，再开一局结果重新从头开始的重复体验，玩家可以一直挑战不同地图的自定义AI。征服模式下玩家可以体验到快节奏的AI竞争对战，以及自己能自定义提高AI对战难度的乐趣，适合快速对战玩家。 谜题模式比较偏向玩家在战役中经历过的各种任务要求集合体现，玩家将要在指定地图中全部完成一系列任务后即可获胜，玩家在游玩中也将会挑战更多更高难度的谜题任务挑战，此模式更加类似玩家群体中的文明六形象，战局游玩时间比上述两种情况更久，非常适合文明六玩家体验。 [h1]灵活的游戏时间机制设计[/h1] 制作组为游戏贴心的设计了经典6X游戏中常见的回合制机制，以及另一种贴近P社游戏的偏即时机制，文明系列玩家可以玩回合制，一般玩家可以体验即时制，因为在即时的暂停状态下，玩家按空格键也可以实现和回合制一样跳过一天（一回合）的情况，而且还可以根据情况走时间来观赏地图场景的动植物，可谓是一举两得。 [quote] 关注[url=https://store.steampowered.com/curator/44791929/]游戏好声音[/url]，认真品味好游戏，倾听游戏好声音。 [/quote]

С этой игрой я познакомился еще на демо-версии с телефона, и она мне понравилась из за атмосферы и графики. Игру я купил как только она вышла, немного поиграв я понял что в игре немного режимов, в которые можно поиграть после сюжетного режима, либо параллельно с сюжеткой. Игра может затянуть на долгое время, жаль что про неё знает не так уж и много людей. А так же могу сказать спасибо разработчикам за русский язык в игре.

The game mechanics are decent. BUT. For mouse and keyboard the controls are horrendous. Sure they work, but there are SO MANY CLICKS. Want to build something? Klick the tile, click arrow keys until you find the building you want to build (a radial menu would have been a million times more convient), than click "build". Also if you have a controller plugged in the game will show it's hotkeys, even when you use mouse/keyboard (in this day and age games should auto-detect what inputs you actually use). You can do much better in the 4X-genre, especially on PC.

I've tried this game a few times and it is much more difficult than it might first appear. I have to admit that even though loosing feels frustrating, it also keeps drawing you in and telling you.... one more game, you can do it! In short, the GFX is nothing special. It looks indy, feels indy but that is OK. No high end PC needed for this. My first impression was that it had a large Carcassonne feel to it, but that is not true. The fun part is trying to uncover what is on the next undiscovered tile. Is it good, can you use it? Then you have the aspect of planning. Different factions use different things to progress. Once you know a bit how things work, it becomes a little easier. In all, would I recommend this? Perhaps so yes. It is a nice game you can play while doing other things and use for a distraction. There is no Real Time Strategy to it, so waiting will not ruin your game. But keep in mind you need to be strategic, plan ahead and keep an eye on the resources. I will check it out some times again. If you like puzzles, don't mind loosing every once and again, this is certainly a game for you. Do you like to rage quit? I suggest to leave it be, it will not be good for you, your gear and maybe the people around you ;)
