The game is overall great and in my opinion worth it for the price. You can play the best part for free which is skirmish. a few suggestions would be the ability to have terraformed things like mountains, stone, trees for a min/max base. or maybe a sandbox mode. Also, maybe a slight nerf to the tributes it seems like i.can only get past maybe 4-5 before I have to scale 1 resource an insane amount to try and keep up. Oh and animal farms being able to "destroy and rebuilt" unless I overlooked that

Thanks so much for the feedback! We’re glad you’re enjoying Skirmish and really appreciate the suggestions — sandbox mode and tribute balancing are things we’ll keep in mind for future updates. RE destroying and rebuilding farms please reach out on Discord or support@shortcircuitstudio.com so we can get this looked into!

The perfect mobile game. One IAP unlocks the game, and you definitely get your money's worth with this one. It's not overly complex, but feels great to play and manage your resources. One suggestion is that the compendium could use a little work, maybe categories instead of having to flip through the pages, and maybe a way to find similar buildings or locations. Press and hold to highlight all similar locations or something like that. Otherwise, fantastic mobile game, other devs take note.

very nice game, easy to pick up and play. price is ok to unlock unlimited play and settings. all that it needs now is either a multiplayer option and/or some race specific buildings...ie: elven tree fortress or dwarven mine, some events and maybe some new building skins to spend gold coins on besides just flag decorations.

What's new

This update brings the fierce Northsmen faction to the New World, complete with their own structures, tech trees and tactics in both Skirmish and Campaign modes. You can now toggle a new turn-based mode in Settings, and Skirmishes support multiple save files so you can experiment with different strategies without losing progress. Under the hood we’ve polished performance, refined the UI and hunted down countless bugs to deliver a smoother, more stable TownsFolk experience.
