Yes, you can do with it or without it. try play easy a.i or remove a.i in custom game before game start.

decent. Infact the campaign is pretty much a tutorial for a while as it gives you goals which are the logical progression you would follow.

ok, thank you very much to you three for your quick replies.

I'll definitely buy it since it's on sale right now.

Isn't it too difficult for a beginner?
and..can we zoom close enough to the citizens?

Just make sure custom setting, remove a.i player (but not remove trader a.i, it's become easiest to play while learning. yes you even can do first person, I forgot hot key.

Edit: press Ctrl + Shift + R, there may be silly side quest for first person, but no long effect, however, it's more of fun and silly.

I just bought the base game and I've been playing the campaign, but it is irritating vague. It does not tell how to add fields to a farm, how to create an obrero (you have to provide more services), nor how to see what each worker is doing. I would not be able to figure this game out on its own.

I'm still searching google to find out how to move a Lumberjack Hut. And I can't pause so not a good impression so far.

There is a move button just beside the copy button. The move button has a hand symbol, the copy a pipette. There are also shortcuts for everything, that you can see and change in the settings. You can move every building like this unless you deactivated that when you set up your game at the start. When you build a building that needs fields, click on the building, there is a symbol in its menu that allows you to add fields. There are two types of field: the sheep farm for example has three stalls you have to place individually and things like potato farms have tiles that you draw until you reached the limit (75 with potatoes I believe).

You create obreros like you create every other class: you fulfill the basic needs of the jornaleros (market, fried plantains and ponchos). All other needs (luxury and lifestyle) are not required to upgrade, they give you money and happiness (luxury) or money and more workforce (lifestyle). Lifestyle is only a thing if you have the "empire of skies" dlc.

I think you need to watch a very basic tutorial. Luckily there is a very good one, that covers everything from the basics of the HUD (what do all these symbols mean) to the most sophisticated mechanics. The first two or three episodes should get you on the right track:

There is no simulation of what individual workers are doing. Workforce is just a number. It's your population of a certain tier minus what your production buildings use. That's why it's irrelevant where on the island workers live and where the production is. There's no "going to work". As long as an island has enough workforce the production will run.

I dont know about that. I tried the f2p demo, and the CPU opponents were already claiming other islands in the base campaign before the game told me how to do that. I had to google how to do it.

Once you get through the basics you are on your own . Almost zero information in the HELP Screen. Very very little.
