Early Access Review
Had this game sitting in my Library for a such long time that I forgot it even existed. And boy I missed a lot.
Game is incredibly addictive.

Gameplay
Most of the mechanics are typical for a city builder. You have a bunch of slaves workers, you tell them to build, hunt, fish, craft and do other important things neccesary for survival of your yet-to-be the best city in the world. They do their things, constantly (if it's enabled) being attacked by raiders and wildlife such as bears and wolves that for some reason run into the middle of the giant ass village only to be beaten to death by angry naked villagers that have nothing but their fists. Combat is overall a big part of this game - you can get yourself an army to fight approaching enemies and destroy their own bases.
Another interesting part is trading. Traders come and leave your village constantly within a year bringing different goods. All of them have different prices that change each time they decide to visit your best-city-ever. It's just a pity you can't seel them manure...

Visuals
Visually the game is really great. You have your fancy grass, trees, flowers, dead villager bodies to look at... Animations are simple but not boring. It's interesting to follow your people from time to time to see what are they up to and scream in agony when they keep trying to get that one stupid log that was left next to a raider's camp, and then just die from those bandits, ending up with a giant pile of bodies and making even more villagers to go there to collect that log and the bodies.

Story
There's no story. And I like it. Not everything has to have a great campaign. You set your own goals.

Overall a very nice game to play, updates come out frequently, devs are listening to community (mostly). Definately worths the money it asks for!
