Tried it out.
Far more Rimworld'y than Tower Defense'y than I expected.
And that's exactly why I didn't really like it that much. If it was a Tower Defense game with RTS elements, I'd likely dig that quite a bit...
...But the way it is, it's far more about trying to make your colony of Lemmings not kill itself than it is about stuff like making a mighty base/castle like it could seem from many screenshots.
Also, maybe I just don't understand something (the tips sure could've told me something about it, eh?), but can't those villagers just hurry up a bit and literally just GO FUCK YOURSELVES some more already...? Please? Really felt like I could barely keep up with the demand for increasingly more workers while my village population rose only by 1 on its own (and by 3 from some traveling nomads or smth like that).

Are you unlocking bonuses with your points? Those can help a lot if you get lucky.

You get points for basically anyting you do and spend those points on the world map for blessings. I got my first unlock after about a hour of messing around.

Dunno, last one that somewhat caught my attention a good few years ago was one of those "GemCraft" games tho.
Got kind of tired of it pretty fast, but that's a weirdly normal thing for me to experience, and I've read that the developers updated the game quite a bit and it's really good now or something like that, so it might actually be pretty decent right now.

And great graphics make a game better? I see Anthem,BF V and even the new Ghost Recon aren't doing too great even though they look great. Lot's of great games that use these low res and retro look that are pretty fun.
Also, what the fuck is dis? Are you retarded or is English not your native language?
