Hello everyone. Sorry I didn’t post this last week. I was overwhelmed by events and forgot. Anyway, I’ve been playing lots of balatro and Nightreign for the past 2 weeks. I hope everyone has had a relaxing weekend

    I saw an interesting teaser trailer for a Frostpunkesque city builder (Dark Switch) so I played some indie city builders since then.

    Foundation - I played this way back when and came back to it again and it is not quite my jam since it’s wants to be more flowy and organic but then has these clear gates that just create friction. At least for me it just still doesn’t quite click.

    Laysara: Summit Kingdom - This one is actually really good imo especially for newcomers to the genre it has a really good tutorial it feels like just the right amount of complexity and just feels really good a bit too easy for my taste but honestly this one is sort of a recommend for newcomers.

    Ancient Cities - I probably spent the most time on this and it is both good and bad the game almost always feels like it’s just a few updates away from being good and a lot of the ideas are great it has some real potential to be a great neolithic city builder.

    Open Rollercoaster Tycoon 2 - Man this game is just so damn good there is just something about how it sounds how it looks that is just mesmerizing. You can’t tell me that this isn’t peak charm.
