Alright, I can't be the only one here playing this game, it's really good.

If you don't know what it is it's a city building/survival game that was released today, made by a single guy.

I'm not interested in sim games. What's different about this one?

Can't run it on my toaster else I would be playing it. I loved the old Caesar series, and this is basically that plus the board game Agricola: Farmers of the Moor.
