Plenty of options if you just want to build casually or go full hardcore. A lot of options to tune, map randomiser, great train and tram system, meaningful research tree as well as some "hidden" concepts that you catch on as time goes by. All in all great game, had it since the early access (not even heating was a thing back then, let alone all the other needs) and now we have a full game. Love It!

P.S. Soundtrack is great :D

With every next update it turns worse and worse. Like devs released the 9/10 game and managed to patch it to 5/10 like it was intended... not to mention that the update should have been called "Escalation of depression".

I both kind of love it and hate it, and with Diablo 4 just around the corner I would advise to save the money.

It's skill system is good and innovative (well...), but similar to Diablo 3 in a way. You are not locked into a class and you can use gold at any time to reset anything. Items are good, effects are great, but in the end I still much prefer Grim Dawn! Is it a recommendation? No due to D4 around the corner. Yes due to good story, gameplay and visuals (even tho game changed devs and they finally completed the storyline).

It keeps getting better and better

Keeps getting better and better. Can't wait for the 3rd game in the series :)

Keeps getting better and better, but then again some stuff feels like complete miss. Let's wait for A18 and see how it changes then.

To be fair I did not expect this game to progess as much as it did, and I'm so glad it did.
I keep getting back to it no matter how much time has passed and see that I am a newbie again with so much new introductions.

Developers listen to the community.
They improve constantly on already implemented stuff (enviroments, monsters, weapons, game mechanics in a way etc.)
There have been a few graphical polishes.
Sounds keep getting better.
Cave leaches are still annoying.
Rock and stone brother.

And I sure hope we get an alternate version of Molly :P.

Right so, 13h into the game and this is included in a small follow up of the game since it was beta. Now the game is fully released and is still getting updates with content and all. +1 for the devs. Must be one of 5 games that I decided to preorder in last 5 years and only one I havent missed by preordering, and now to explain why:

I am (was) and avid Dungeon Keeper 2 player. It was a game that I was returing to years after years even after I've tried a lot of games that tried (Dungeons which were, Overlord which was fun after all). Humor of DK2, animations all played into the game including the masterfully done voice acting of dungeon advisor. THESE GUYS MANAGED TO GET THE SAME GUY TO VOICE DUNGEON ADVISOR IN WftO!!!! When I bought (preordered) the game there was no advisor to begin with, you can imagine my inner schoolgirl screams when I heard his voice along with all the comments that gave the game that "extra" I wanted in it.

Unfortunatelly my job (where I travel a lot) prevents me of playing what I want when I want, but this will be the game I will return to for singleplayer if not multi. Game has a lot features, it's easy to learn if you ever played DK or DK2, some mechanics are different but all the new mechanics (like Aspects of Evil) are a positive and nice tactical change in the game that affects MP games (think of C&C Generals by picking general, but you can unlock all in due time, but that takes, well, time). Characters look great, visuals are superb, traps, imps, slaps, this game has all!

it gets solid 9.5/10. For 10/10 it misses casino and Disco Inferno when monster wins jackpot!
