Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 0.29/day in the week to Jul 30 → 0/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 26 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 7 places towards #1, and the 2,400 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

Early Access showed promise, since release nothing has been added or fixed to the game in over a year. Guess they didn't make enough money to carry on fixing and improving.
Don't buy this. Promise so much, but nothing update after 1.0 release.
game has a settlers feel

Definitely broken.
It can be a lot of fun with a small group of friends, I wouldn't recommend a larger group, But around 2 to 4 players in one session. Still fun regardless.
Игра хорошая, но нехватает ии врагов которые развиваються чтобы было интересно играть в одиночный режим.
I loved this game even with its numerous bugs but it is currently unplayable for me when I start the game it gets stuck on a black loading screen and never get past it often times crashing if any input is given. and I have tried to fix this a number of times and will likely try to fix it again but I have found no solution not uninstalling and reinstalling, verifying files, or even deleting my last save which caused the game to crash somehow with the main issue starting afterwards edit: it still happens it does so when first starting so I cannot even play the game at all I have yet to refund the game with the hope it may be fixed one day since I wish to still play this game and see more from it
bir sürü hata var ver 1 yıldan uzun bir süredir çözmediler. There are alot of bugs . They dont want to solve them.
This game is pretty much all about "figure it out yourself". Personally I love rts/city building games and this one is a good game that has potential and starts off strong. However, midway through you just kind of lose direction. it doesn't really explain the higher classes, how to get there, and why you want them. I found very few reasons to have scholars in my capital but i may need a specific material or resource accessible only by scholars from another region that's not found anywhere else and it just not possible to build up to and support the scholar class and all of those classes beneath them. With every new region you gain most of them are going to require you to support them as they're simply not self sustaining when you couple the needs with class requirements. I have to build a trade network that i Constantly have to check because trade caravans cost a lot and the needs fluctuate and you always have to send something on both sides of the trade. you're constantly checking the needs and trade routes so that a item you are supplying doesn't run out of inventory space on the receiving town and then the caravan goes back an forth between towns full of the same item essentially useless because of it. another issue amonst a few is the military side. clunky, not smooth, units spaced soooo far apart when traveling, no way to heal damaged units on campaign, have to learn to load up a caravan with food to support then military campaign. if I have a full loadout of units and a caravan, the units are so spaced out that if the expedition force got ambushed on the way to the destination that 1st group will be decimated before the rear is pulled up. diplomacy: you can pour money into these cities but you have to find them on your own. i was way too far into the game to find that out. If you request soldiers, nothing happens even if you've found their city. There are just too many balls being dropped in this game to recommend it. there's clearly some vision here and not nearly enough polish even after 1 year. this game is like a pummice stone; yeah it may look smooth from a distance but rub it between your hands and it's going to be a rough time.
game has some promise but needed alot more improvements, has since been totally abandoned. cant recommend at all.
