I'm 4 hours in to the game and I am having some fun.....so why the thumbs down. Well...let me mention some of the positives first. The graphics are crisp and look good. The game can be challenging without being frustrating. I en-counted no bugs what so ever. The main season I gave a thumbs down are this: This is a puzzle game....in no way can it really be called a "city builder or colony sim"...because it is truly neither. It's a "find the best spot to place the building in order to best exploit it's purpose". There is very little freedom in that sense. The fact that it does not say puzzle under the "tags" for the game is kinda crazy. Also...there is no in game save option so If you start a scenario you must finished it or loose and progress you have made.....which for me is a cardinal sin....especially on the pc. So....if puzzle games are your thing then you may enjoy the game considering it's only $5. But if you're looking for a true city builder I would stay clear.

It's sort of OK for a few hours. Good points: Inexpensive, fast load times, looks ok, no training required, some achievements. Bad points: Very limited game play, only one small map, almost no sound effects and poor music, events don't seem to actually have any impact, cant make citizens happy so production is reduced, campaign is just training, Free Build mode is a waste of time as no resources are produced, Scenario has a max limit of days etc.

You've seemingly designed a system where the outcome is aimed at failure. If you didn't want to release a game at this point then you shouldn't have. You're welcome. If you don't understand, the game balance is skewed. Again, you're welcome? Lovely game other than that.

Looks like a fun base builder, but it is not. Its a odd type of puzzler.
