How it feels

A methodical survival and base-building RTS where you must strategically transport resources across procedurally generated fantasy western maps, often cooperating with others to overcome threats.

What players say

Players praise the co-op missions and resource-stealing mechanic, but are split on the local resource pool system, with some finding it realistic and others calling it unintuitive. The game has mod support and three factions, though it is still in early access.
