A unique and compelling twist on the classic city building concept. The rougelike elements are fun, and I love the short amount of time you spend on each town you build. It really quells my perfectionism which is really my downfall in most city builders and why I don't usually stay engaged. If that's you too, this may be your new favorite in the genre!

The art is super charming, varied, and atmospheric. The game has a charming dark fantasy aesthetic and is creative in the world building, it's subtle but just enough lore to keep you engaged in the world. The music is phenomenal with decent variety, it's not one you'll get tired of and turn to 0% volume. The UI is readable, pleasing to the eye, and easy to navigate. The mechanics can get quite deep, and I feel like I've barely scratched the surface at 10 hours. However the devs do an amazing job at easing you into it, and slowly building up mechanics and difficulty in a way that feels neither overwhelming nor tedious. The amount of content also seems quite good, and I can see myself playing for 50+ more hours before I feel the need to get any DLC. The devs also seem quite active and engaged with the community. Overall a super strong recommendation from me and while I did purchase it on sale, I'd happily buy it full price if I had to..
