Hello! There are many ways to restore energy which will unlock later on in the game: mini-game 2048, the worker delegate system, various dishes with restorative effects, so look forward to those. However, thank you for the feedback, we'll investigate the early game energy struggles further in the future.

Could have been perfect.

I actually want to give this game 5 stars. But I cannot because they made it almost unplayable when you get into the game; their economy is too expensive and the grind needed is unreal. It makes me angry because it’s exactly the game I’ve been looking for.

I’d be happy to pay some money, but I looked at what’s on offer and it’s a waste. You’d have to invest a LOT of money (not worth it when I get A* games for cheaper on pc). The “energy” system they have is fruitless, all you do is panic about it running out and then you can’t do anything unless, yup, you guessed it. You pay.

The good stuff and some bad
You slowly build your town and go out hunting and fighting which is cool. No real “blocking” mechanism which is sad, so just push the same button down. That’s it.
I enjoy the mix of animals, people and building that’s required with a nice little resource gathering system. Simple yet rewarding. The boars are cool to kill, but watch out. Sometimes they annoyingly don’t drop ANY resources. It’s a boar. Not even meat?????

It’s easy to ignore any little nuisances about the game because they actually created something fun, cool and immersive. But I hate to say it’s been spoilt by greed. I’ll probably stop playing soon as the fun is going due to this. But will probably revisit at some later stage to see if anything has changed.

Worth a download. Just watch your wallet.

No guidance on how to play

Neat game, but I am struggling to fulfil quests, mainly because I have no idea of priorities. Game keeps going around in circles, required to obtain object, when there are same objects in my itinerary, but no idea how to use them? Lots of projects half completed, but none can be finished. The control of the gladiator is rather poor, it should be under the character, not so 40mm away. Game needs major rethink and some instructions

Thanks for your reply, but I have now quit this game, as it appears to have a serious glitch. Despite many attempts, my itinerary gets full s d I have to dump them. The last straw was with the character who was asked to collect stone, and kept going to a designated stop, and when actioned, did nothing because there was NO stone
Programmers do not appear to be testing throughly

Hello!
Thank you for the feedback, noted! We might explore into better tutorial for UI elements later in the future. At the moment the best way to keep track of your progress is the Quests tab, and by using the Find Material/Magnifying Glass button. The compass under your character will lead you to the corresponding location.

Hope this helps!
