    Great game but that is an unhinged city layout in the thumbnail

      Is it that bad? I have barely played the game and that was a long time ago so can’t say what’s wrong with it other than the oddly long layout.

        Well based on the abundance of trees (and low impatience/reputation) they’re pretty early in the game but they’ve got houses in the upper left which means they built a second hearth way before they could really benefit from it

        The trader can be anywhere since it’s not producing or using goods (no travel time to worry about) but they put it within the circle of warmth where houses should go instead

        There’s twice as many human houses as they need but 0 harpy houses. Half the population is homeless and I don’t see any basic housing anywhere. They’re far along enough in the skill tree to have human/beaver houses unlocked at the start of the city so they’re not new

        They also didn’t clear out any of the resources by the hearth

        I have way too many hours in this game for how long I’ve owned it lol

            Yeah I love it lol

            If you liked Frostpunk you’ll like this game a lot. Not sure of any other similar games but if you have any to suggest I’m all ears

    If I like games like Rimworld and Dyson Sphere Program, would I like this one?
