I saw this game on sale and it looks like a builder strategy game.

I'm gonna give it a try.




guess you can call it a rogue-lite city builder?

No, you just play it once to see everything. It's like a walking sim in that it wants you to experience a narrative more than anything else.

I'll save it for a rainy day when I'm bored and in between games then.

It has the trappings of a strategic city management game, but playing it, you'll quickly realise that it's all smoke and mirrors. They could have used those systems properly, but instead it's all scripted and you follow a set sequence of events and choices.
