Anvil Saga

A great example of how easy it is to flush all your potential down the toilet. This game still has a lot of game-breaking bugs, and no one is going to fix them. And that is sad, because the game is actually pretty good. But it is unplayable in its current state. And guess what? Now they are going to launch this unpolished "gem" on PlayStation instead of fixing at least some of the bugs. I don't know about you, but I would never buy from this company again. How can you, when they would rather develop a new game or launch an old one somewhere else instead of fixing their existing products? DO NOT encourage this kind of treatment. We deserve better.

Abandoned game, so no fixes to bugs, don't buy it

--tl;dr If steam policy allowed me to refund this game, I would, due to how riddled with bugs it is. Calling this a 1.0 release has put a very large red flag on this developer for me. It starts out charming, and interesting even. And if you can tolerate all of the jank and just want a VERY grindy game that will waste a lot of your time, and provide you with an ending that is unrelated to your in-game choices, you'll be ok with this. --Below is a list of bugs and issues with the game, feel free to skip to the end, or even that as well, if the tl'dr was enough for you. Worker issues: --A queue system for tasks would benefit the gameplay greatly. Workers forget what they were doing all. the. time. You have to click to make workers eat the food they made, so they don't hit starvation. Workers frequently encounter pathing issues. Once you have accepted an order, there is no way to refuse it. Due to a limited worker portrait pool, it is easy to mix them up. As far as I saw, there is only one female worker portrait in the game. The game does alert you if a worker is not assigned. However, once assigned, you have only your memory to rely on who does what. The portraits could REALLY use a…

Full of bugs, bad controls, frustrating gameplay

Lots of small bugs & design flaws. Some features are incomplete. Very repetitive.

The most basic part of the game is bugged: the first given quest have insane timing that you cannot possibly finish it. That happens to every quest (at least in my half hour playthrough). A quest asks apprentice to make 5 items and the timer runs out before that guy arrives! I would not recommend anyone buy the game with such basic part of the game bugged. I guess I can make do without quest reward but I can only expect more game breaking bugs if the devs cannot fix the most basic thing in the game.
