I've been looking at this game since before it's release but bought it two days ago as an escape from an exam. Now. I'm a massive strategy-nerd so I didn't have a problem sinking 14 hours in to this game in just two days. I can't recommend it though.

So. The game looks cute. Few games make city-building look nice without you even trying. In this one whenever I got out of focusing on the next task I could really enjoy the view. The game is mostly self explanatory which works in its chill mood. I Also liked that you only defend your place and don't have to attack. I absolutely love that. The problems it has are unfortunately too many.

Not everything is intuitive. I would like to just choose a building and then see all the other ones I have of the same sort. Small details are missing like how the parks don't use the same paths (gravel or stone) as the roads around them. You can't move buildings which is a have to in a city builder mostly focused on making a beautiful little medieval town. After 2000 citizens there is only repetitive work left (That is actually true for 1000 citizens but it's not really bothersome until 2000). Which brings up the fact that the medium map is way too small. I know you can choose bigger but medium should be named small for this game. They tease you with these wonderful possibilities too build gates for your boats and walls in the water but it only work on 1-3 squares out in the water which means that it can only be done on certain maps.

the game is pretty and what it tries to do I love but it needs to be redone better.
