I was looking forward to playing the campaign after having spent some time working through the tutorial, only to be met with a paywall that is required to play the campaign at all, and at a steep price too. There are other modes available for free, but they seem more like minigames and I honestly didn't bother trying them out since I was so baffled at the campaign needing to be bought, a fact which is not mentioned anywhere by the way. So all I did was waste my time for nothing...

Thank you for sharing your thoughts. We’re sorry the experience felt disappointing. Our store page does mention that the base game is free, with the full campaign unlocked through a one-time purchase. Free players still have access to Skirmish, puzzles, and the full tutorial. We’ll keep working on making this clearer.

very nice game, easy to pick up and play. price is ok to unlock unlimited play and settings. all that it needs now is either a multiplayer option and/or some race specific buildings...ie: elven tree fortress or dwarven mine, some events and maybe some new building skins to spend gold coins on besides just flag decorations.

Finally a good ad free game! You can speed up gameplay or pause it to give you time to think. The creators definitely put thought into the game. I just finished the tutorial and I already love it. You expand your settlement and face random challenges, gain boons, and explore cool places. This game deserves a try. I know I can see myself playing this for hours.
