First steamworld game in a genre I have no interest in, sad to say.

Hope its a success though. Love the brand.

    Looks really good.

    Building, Mining, Tower Defense, some automation. I'm here for all of it.

    Very excited for this, the demo was fantastic.
    They "borrow" a ton from the Anno series but the twists they put on it are great. Hope the Switch version runs well.

    Didn't know about this one. Looks like SimCity x Dungeon Keeper? Is that an apt comparison?

    More like surviving the aftermath/endzone/farthest frontier x Dungeon keeper/Dungeons.

    Or Anno like people already said.

    I've been day one on all the Steamworld stuff so far, but something about this hasn't quite clicked for me since it was revealed.

    I ought to go watch an extended gameplay segment to get a better feel for it, since I'm all for expanding the world with different games, etc.

    I also hope the Switch version is in good shape since that's where i like to do my Steamworlding.

    If you have a computer, you can download the demo right now.

    pretty much, I would say Anno x Dungeon Keeper, but SimCity is also pretty fitting in parts.

    btw there is a free demo still available on Steam to try it out (enjoyed it a lot and looking forward to it)

    I'm really interested in this. Looks like an interesting mix of Dungeon Keeper and the Anno series.

    Any SteamWorld game is a day 1 purchase for me. No matter the genre, the devs always seem to knock it out of the park.

    Nice, glad this is coming to PlayStation since Quest never made it. Day one is even better.

    I'm worried I'm not going to be as into the mining/defense parts of this, and also I hope the game actually includes the launching off and colonizing a new planet (or planets!).

    The demo was fantastic, so I'm excited for this to be the first city builder-esque game I'll enjoy.

    First SteamWorld game I'm not interested in (well, I dropped the card game a few hours in) but since it's on GP, sure I'll give it a try.
