What is the nature of this game?

because a number of individuals would rather type 6 words on the steam forums and complain when people don't bow down to help them. Laziness is a growing issue why should they look for reviews when they can expect others to do it for them.

Nothing wrong with asking questions.

Everybody here says "Survival City Builder" .... what the heck is that??

You cant describe a game exclusively with terms which only means something to somebody if you know these games or if you experiencd these terms.

"Mum, mum, what is a cow?" - "It's like a one humped camel, but smaller!" - "And what is a one humped camel?" - "Its like a camel, but camel have two humps. And it has four legs." - So a cow is like a dog?" - "No, its more like an Al Paca". - "And what exactly is an alpaca" "it gives wool" - "Oh a cow is then like a sheep" - "LOL, no , a cow is a cow!"

The best way I can describe this game since you've only played Sim City would be Sim City but a lot more hands on. You have to make sure your people are hunting/foraging or farming for food. You have to train soldiers to protect them from raiders. You have to have adequate resources so they can survive winter. When people say survival city builder, what I stated prior is pretty much the baseline.

Also, I always recommend checking youtube for gameplay videos and see if its something you like.

I actually agree with the idea that the game is a mix of Age of Empires and Sim City. But it's more Sim City than AoE, and not really a city but more of a village or town. It has more of a survival context and emphasis on economic production chains than Sim City. Your people can die if you don't provide for their basic needs and protect them from the wilderness. You need to design and ensure the transport and logistics of food, clothes, and other goods otherwise your people will be naked and freeze to death in winter. Etc. That's what everyone means by "survival city builder".

While AoE is an RTS (and this game isn't), they have a similar visual feel and the way you build your town has a similar cadence and vibe. If you play with enemy raiders then you will be building and defending your town with a military, just not to the extent you do in AoE.

I specifically bought this game because the graphics and vibe reminded me of AoE II. It is much more relaxing and passive and town-building focused compared to AoE II though. To me, FF is the game I always wanted AoE to be in the early stages of a map before the enemy AI outpaced me and swooped in to destroy my town.
