I played Frostpunk and didn't think I enjoyed Settlement builder games... then I played Against the Storm and realized I just need the right one. I so need to play this more. It's so fun!
Frostpunk is much more focused on the "survival" aspect. This one is much more focused on the roguelike aspect. Both are incredible games, but each has its own flavor, and everyone has different tastes ♥
@@glorbog Yup, the different scenarios in frostpunk are cool and different enough to warrant playing each at least once, but after a successful playthrough it kinda wanes off. This one is much more repeatable and great fun! I personally love both to bits
Frostpunk got me back into city builders, and I think that, Timberborn, and Banished are my three favorites. I bounced off of Against the Storm about 2 years ago, but I probably need to just give it another try.
Hi, here are couple friendly advice: 1) You picked forager camp but you didn't check if there was resources on map that foragers camp can gather. Instead you could use those 5 points for 30 stone (2), 30 clay (2) and 40 wood for fast building at start (1 point). 2) Opening dangerous glade on first year is gamble, at higher levels it could lose your game at year 3 or early. I usually open 1 tile paths to all surrounding glades at year 1, and leave 1 tree for every near glade, so i can open 2 dangerous glades at year 2 if 1 glade is easy with no hostility. 3) You can make 1 tile wood cutting by holding ctrl or shift, and you can put check on woodcutter that says cut except glades. 4) Also you can delete stone roads at your second glade and get stone. 5) It is cheaper to stop gathering wood during storm to lower hostility, than use more wood sacrificing than woodcutters gather during 2 seasons. 6) You can decline cornerstone and get 10 gold. 7) You can multiply trade route 2-5x times, left side in trade routes selling. 8) You can hold Alt to see what buildings have rain engines, and what color. Also you can increase or decrease usage of rain in that mode. 9) You can set production priority in buildings, 1-5 numbers on left. Thank you for playing this game.
This game is very good. I dont like city builders and i played this for weeks , looking guides, learning the basics and try to race against my self. Tip: try to open a glades each year, even when you think you are early in the run.
My problem with the game was always that in "lower" difficulties it is a really good citybuilder with a somewhat "okayish" level of stressmeter. But in higher difficulties the stress and the high risk/high reward-system gets so annoyingly hard and unsatisfying that I was putting the game after ~65h away. But the concept of the game, a roguelike citybuilder+recourcemenagement-system was a great idea. Hope other developers would grab this idea and gave them their own spin.
@danielehartmann2787 People have different tastes. I was bored at first 5-10 games because they were too easy, but i was learning what is what, so that kept me around until level 10 viceroy it got really interesting because of high rick-high reward. I play other-casual games to relax.
Don't forget to Promote one of the races when you can to boost your Reputation. Secondly, once you have 8 people with Housing you should build a Park so you get that +1 to Resolve.
If you want to reroll your races or map modifiers you can just abandon the map, you lose no time in years, and just hope for better RNG in the next one.
Thank you so much for playing and covering the new content

I loved frostpunk a helluva lot. Gets insanely tense... But then I realized, one game of it is all I needed... So it's dropped.
This looks interesting

Love this game. Looking forward for the dlc after finishing the disappointing Frostpunk 2.
Such an awesome game. And the devs are great, it was an amazing Early Access experience. Getting the DLC the day it comes out

S tier game. It's like the lunch break of gaming. Until shit hits the fan that is.
Shame you didn't get frogs.
