I played a bit again and got a lot farther and I think as a lot of other people have said it does get a lot easier once you get past the start and yea very satisfying game wish I didn't have to work today so I could just keep playing. I will say tho I think the trick with the bakerys is probably what kept me afloat in terms of money. Getting a normal amount of lumberyards was also appreciated too lol.
I really want to fall in love with this game but the difficulty or rng feels so brutal like ofc I run out of gold every so often but I also have games where I just run out of cards with no trees on the board or get my hand filled up with lumberyards with no trees to use them on. It really does feel difficult to figure out how to get a better score.
addicted, love this game!! its normally not something i'd gravitate to playing but its genuinely on of my favs now. Would love to have it on the apple store so I can play it on the go lol :))
The game suprisingly ended to a lack of resources to quarry, after extremely aggressive strategy to maximize amount of stone house cards in the deck. That, and bad card RNG ruined my economy which proved to be game ending. A lot of heavy bulldozing (also house tiles), and card discarding. Lags were tolerable until the last few hundreds of population when I was forced to place piers on the southern coast to make room for other cards on the hand. Taverns saved me several times from The Game Over, before they ultimately did not. Nice game of some 20+ hours of playing. You cannot make map much uglier than this. All landmass is within the bounding box of 48 tiles wide and 51 tiles high (2448 tiles). It's probably possible to get population over 4000 using this kind strategy of intentionally limiting expansion of playing area. :)
Took me a few tries but I got the hang of it! Lovely little game, very cozy <3
Only thing I can criticize is that sometimes you just lose to bad RNG. Too many piers early game leaves you with no money for draw, I feel like fields should be slightly more abundant when placing down houses.
GG! Only pop. 178 to finish the castle is very good result in accomplishing the Demo.
In this game, most of time you lose to bad RNG, and when not, it's the game crashing to a memory insufficiency with Pop. 1500-2000+ kingdoms long after the completion of the castle and the demo.
I have no accurate statistics to show, but for every pop. 1000+ games there must be at least 20-30 games ended to a bad RNG very early in the game.
The most usual end result for me is population 18, or less.
Love this game. There's two changes I'd love to see. With how common the piers are, I wish they were stackable or could connect to each other. Please add a single save file, so I can have a session span a few days! Thanks for the game

I have the same problem!!
How do i get my kingdom to be big? i am having a lot of trouble advancing further than 16-20 people at most.
Card generation is broken sometimes, i get a lot of lumber yard cards with no trees and it's impossible to continue playing
I really enjoyed the game<3
this was so lovely and so cozy <3
a normal-graphics version of this game would be totally sweet
YES
