How it feels
You read and make choices to build a stronghold and shape a decades-long story, with a calm, deliberate pace driven by imagination rather than action or graphics.

What players say
Players praise the town-building focus but are frustrated by large time skips that skip character development and reduce the impact of choices. Many say the story is thin and the ending feels rushed, though replayability is decent.
