What players say

88% of 17,877 reviews are positive · 89% of 101 in the last 30 days

Players praise the flexible multilevel castle building, terrain manipulation, and management of distinct settlers. Common complaints focus on poor pathfinding, unreliable combat and defensive behavior, and the lack of families or lineages; some players also find progression thin after the settlement is established.
