How it feels

Building and managing a medieval settlement feels carefully strategic and quietly rewarding as you balance resources to nurture a thriving community.

What players say

Players say the game is a relaxing city builder with a short campaign, but some cannot progress past the third mission due to a bug. Others find it too slow and tedious, with villagers failing to prioritize tasks like gathering food, leading to starvation. Free mode and save games also have bugs.
