My wife and I played together and started a village that we played for over 165 years, which should be endgame I think.
You guys did such a wonderful job with this game, I think you have something very especial in your hands that could become a hallmark game if the next iterations are smart.
Here is some of my feedback and suggestions:
- The game, at least in its current version for me maxed out at 1000 villagers, immigration stopped, the number of babies being born and villagers dying was almost completely even, so we kind of lost our drive to continue expanding as the game seemed to have capped out,
- While one of the strongest features of the game its no doubt its simplicity, the game needs more going on than just trading building and defending from raiders. I think we should be able to interact with other villages in different ways,
- The raiders in end game act completely erratically, I had an end game raid where the invaders breached through 4 layers of maxed out walls behind 2 towers and a military camp. There was nothing that could stop them, I lost nearly 50 people in the most illogic way possible,
- The military control is not good. Ordering solders to stay behind the wall is completely useless when they ignore your every order and make idiotic decisions to charge when they were told to stay still. We need much better control over military tactics.
- Speaking of which, it would be great to have military formations, different units and so on. I know this is not Civ and not a military game but right now it feels too basic, especially when raiders are such a pervasive part of the game,
- We need more buildings, more of everything actually.
In the end… I LOVE your game and can’t wait to see what you will make of it i n the future!
