About Civitatem
Shape the future of your people by managing and assigning the most skilled villager for each task. Fight off the natural elements or raiders, research new technologies, explore the region around you for other villages to trade with, and special rewards.
Name your village and create your village elder. Choose his specializations and use him to lead the village. He never sleeps and is available for critical tasks, even when the rest of village are sleeping or injured.
The most important resource are your villagers, where each can be specialized in certain tasks, gaining experience each time they perform it. Kids can be educated in schools to start their adult life with better skills.
Experience the game in three difficulties, each with their own challenges and progression, along with a Free Mode, that is unlocked after you finish the game once, and can be played without events or combat. Each time you finish the game, you get a persistent reward, that will help on your next play through.
To achieve victory, besides building a stable village, you will also have to build one of the two end game buildings, that will make your town become a popular place of trade, spirituality and knowledge.
Thanks to the useful feedback from players during the Early Access period, Civitatem has doubled the content, added new features, improved old ones and polished the overall experience.

...It's not good. I've come back to Civitatem 4 times since I bought it, hoping it would get better, or at least have some more content drops. It hasn't.

Updates have been absolutely unnoticable, and other than running a surface level village, there's nothing else to do, other than build a library and a church (which are the only winning conditions and end goals of the game). Some people are comparing Civitatem to Rimworld. They have literally NOTHING in common, other than that they're both colony simulators, which doesn't even feel right to say, since Civitatem barely fits into the colony genre.

The only reason I came back to play it was the addition of achievements. One of those achievements is to "Participate in the Winter 2022 event".
