Just wanted to bring some more well deserved attention to this awesome game!

After playing too many city builder games I thought it'd be a long time before I got into another but after seeing the crazy high rating on steam (95% positive with more than 11k reviews) I decided to try it out and boy is it awesome.

I've been hooked playing this game for the last couple weeks now, I'd love to hear Lemmy's thoughts on the game

Official description:

A dark fantasy city builder where you must rebuild civilization in the face of apocalyptic rains. As the Queen’s Viceroy, lead humans, beavers, lizards, foxes, and harpies to reclaim the wilderness and secure a future for civilization's last survivors.

I've been enjoying it, I haven't exactly got the hang of it yet but I'm having fun none the less. I like that you can play it in nice sessions instead of pulling an all nighter with something like civilizations

That seems to be what most people like about it. But I actually wanted a more long form city builder, so it didn't really scratch that itch for me. I did enjoy it, though not as much as I thought I would. Would definitely recommend if you're looking for something a bit different (in terms of city builders, that is).
