What Steam players say
Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.
Earth of Oryn is an early access city builder with significant technical issues that frustrate many players, including broken mechanics like manufacturing, malfunctioning citizen AI that causes them to disappear or get stuck, and an unbalanced economy that makes progression difficult. However, some players appreciate the developer's responsiveness to feedback and find promise in the game's graphics, affordable price, and foundation as a city builder similar to Kingdoms and Castles, viewing it as gradually improving through updates despite its rough current state.
Earth of Oryn is broken, and the art you were excited about is nowhere to be found. Citizens leave / disappear because they have needs you can't meet, or they get stuck in a building and die. Citizens have jobs but they might just wander around chopping wood forever. The trust mechanic is busted, eventually scaring away all your citizens. Manufacturing straight up doesn't work. Merchants sell approximately 2 items per season, so it's nearly impossible to earn money. The walls that you see in previews are incredibly expensive so you can't afford to build them. Buildings all look the same, and -- at least this is honestly portrayed in the screenshots -- the roofs are busted. Earlier screenshots and video on Steam and Kickstarter portrayed a very different game (multiple civilizations, multiple biomes, siege weapons, combat) than the one that's for sale. I wanted that other game. This feels like No Man's Sky all over again.94 found this helpful
This game is slowly shaping up to become one of my favourite city builders6 found this helpful
the game is worth an get if you don't care about new game ea jank. now that the dev did the rework fixes with the house and the water systems were both readded back in, so it should fix some the bad reviews due to those issues. so the game is slowly improving as an whole4 found this helpful
The developer is open for communication and feedback. Very appreciated.4 found this helpful
I love the graphics and the way I can build my city with all the interactions and how I can manage it. And on top of that, it's even cheaper than expected. €15, considering the number of hours I'll be able to play it, is much cheaper than a movie ticket. I hope the (only !) developer keeps their promises regarding future development. It's certainly not completely finished yet, but I'm looking forward to what's to come!2 found this helpful
It's a good game similar to Kingdoms and Castles . It takes a bit of studying the tutorial , because at various bits you might get stuck for a while. However if you have played similar games you might not , you might find it very easy. So far I would give it 8/10. Thanks.
