It's pretty fun especially the early game.

I did not like micromanaging your colonists jobs.
Colonel Caliga is Awesome.

I've read it's pretty dry unless you own the DLCs. Is that true? I guess I'll give it a swing anyway, it's free.

Josquius

It's alright.
Some frustrating points, pretty banished like in that supply zone shuffling is important. And I never got to the end with terraforming- dissapointing results teaching key stages.

That was my take on it.  I did not bother with the DLCs

If you were interested in Frostpunk it is now free on Epic.

I purchased it once, found it too stressful and refunded it on Steam. :Embarrass:

I drank because I wanted to drown my sorrows, but now the damned things have learned to swim.

Ok, fahdiz. :P

Just kidding. Recently had a game recommended to me where you're tasked with raising a child (boy or girl) as part of the Nazi Lebensborn program in the Third Reich. I'm glad the game exists, but I don't think it would be good for my mental state to play it. https://store.steampowered.com/app/1114070/My_Child_Lebensborn/ :cry:

QuoteParenting will be hard as your child grows up in a hostile and hateful environment. Experience how hatred towards an enemy can create victims even in times of peace. You will experience the suffering your child has to go through due to a hostile and abusive society, watching them lose warmth and happiness.

Yeah, thanks, none of that, please. :weep:

I liked frost punk a lot.
I remember playing it in a cold December with a half decorated house where I had yet to figure out how to work the heating. Really built the atmosphere.
Good  simple game.

Yeah, I think my issue with Frostpunk was combo of bleakness but also feeling like I was always on the edge of failing.

I like games to relax not stress me out. -_-

The medievals were only too right in taking nolo episcopari as the best reason a man could give to others for making him a bishop. Give me a king whose chief interest in life is stamps, railways, or race-horses; and who has the power to sack his Vizier (or whatever you care to call him) if he does not like the cut of his trousers.

Government is an abstract noun meaning the art and process of governing and it should be an offence to write it with a capital G or so as to refer to people.
