graet game fun and plenty todo
This is the kind of game where I'll go and sit down and think I might game for an hour but somehow now it's been 3!
To me, it's great. I've been playing for several years and enjoying the new learning curve each time there is a big update. I love the anti-grid style of building and letting the villagers make their own paths.
I'm having fun with the demo now, can't wait for the full release!
Great game right from the start, Very happy with all the new additions, cant wait for the release
very chill fun game even in early access super excited for the full release looks super promising
A nice little laid back game. It's enjoyable to build and assign your townsfolk jobs but don't be in any rush to build and advance too quickly because as per many games like this there's a delicate balance. Things can become complicated quickly when dealing with Labor, The Crown and of course the Clergy.
Trade with other villages is where you really make your money but that doesn't happen overnight and frankly I found the "I'm selling this" settings to be funky. In no time I lost everything. You make your trade settings to how much you want left at a minimum in your stocks. Strange to be sure.
But other than that it's a slow but steady game that requires no war. Just trading and making a prosperous city from a tiny village.
This game went from "what the hell, ill try the demo since it's medievel" to "ok i might as well just buy it now cuz I'm in love and ill have to start over anyway" before I had even finished the demo.
I generally prefer Colony Simulators and avoid "city builder" games, as they come from a broader perspective than I like. Basically I like to have more complex population interactions/needs than the city builder genre generally entails. With that said, this game proved me wrong. It really bridges the gap between city builders and colony simulators. It's not quite as psychotically in depth (or as savage) as vanilla Rimworld, but it's certainly comparable with how rich in features and interactions it has.
Not sure why still in early access but the game seems solid enough. Time just flies the more the game goes on.
very nice ambient music. Paintbrush tool for choosing where resources are harvested from is very good. Some terrain induced glitches I encounter but not game breaking.
PS whyyy are cloisters so friggin hard to plot.
Fun game, worth it. The unique mechanics have grown on me, its a bit like Sim Kingdom. This is the type of game that would be fun to revisit older game versions. From the new demo, the upcoming version of the game will be a decent upgrade. I'd imagine you can find plenty of help online, but I have fumbled through just fine.
A super fun and relaxing City-Builder... Which is also Great at showing you the ropes in an understandable way.
i can say that this game has been such fun for a history buff, like myself. I have always enjoyed simulation building games such as Sim City, and Cities Skylines and to see this city builder set in Medieval times is fun. I have played the game on and off and spent many hours in different cities and environments. This game on a macro level teaches the players about economies, especially of scale. the larger your village gets, the more you strain to find resources. I love how the game also encourages trading mechanics. you could feasibly produce all the resources yourself but that would be inefficient, therefore you need to trade with other regions.
Now that I have played the demo, I can see so many things have been added to the game and these will just enhance the experience. I am looking forward to the full game when it is released. I suggest that anyone who wants to get a better idea of the game, I suggest you get the early access, which teaches you the basic aspects of the game and then once it is released, you will be able to properly experience it. Also, love the updated designs for the full game, it looks awesome.
This is my favorite game on Steam. It is a MUST play in my opinion. This game is super approachable and relaxing, you can really get in there and start building the town of your dreams easily, but the more you get into it, the more sophisticated you can get with unlocking all of the Kingdom Influence tiers, decorating and balancing the economy, production chains, and trade.
There is great opportunity for customization with buildings like the manor, military bases and religious buildings, so every town can really look different, and building is fun every time. There is no grid, meaning you can put anything anywhere, allowing for so much creativity and sets this game apart from most other city builders.
The amount of mods available directly in the game really takes it to the next level. With the decoration mods, I can spend hours decorating my town. I love zooming in and following a serf as they go to work and church, stop by the market and go home for the day.
I highly recommend watching a documentary about medieval times while you play, or even just a show like Game of Thrones, The White Queen, or the Witcher, you'll be able to draw inspiration from the architecture and immerse yourself in a fantasy world.
Very relaxing builder that really fits into a niche of its own. I love the freeform building where you do not need to worry about "road" access compared to similar games. The organic growth with the population, the resource extraction and the ability to build off of existing structures (outside of the resource related structures, is what I find to be the most open-ended.
This is a fun little city builder. But don't let the graphics fool you, it can be as complex and min-maxing as you wanted to.
Or like me, just build things wherever there is space and regret it forever.
11/10, will scatter everything around the town and things take forever to get done, legit real life experience.
Fun city building, beautiful art direction
Stepped into the early access early on and have loved it ever since. Sure, it had it's quirks during development, with things not always working as they were (probably) intended, but Hey... what do you expect from an early access anyway? They've gradually added material and created a balanced experience that allows you to start expand your village and find your challenge there. When you're done with that (if ever, I love to restart and build my villages different every single time), you can go and look for some mods, which greatly can increase the difficulty of the game and can add lots of new material.
Great game for relaxing with after work! Definitely recommended!
This game is very much a at your own pace setting, its fun while simple yet has complexities.
It has been a lot of fun following this game through early access. Looking forward to the full release!
I love how you can be a peaceful clergy or marketable village if you want. There is also a military option but I feel like most town building games revolve around that so this game is nice and different :)
A fantastic, dynamic and highly simulated medieval city builder. Your choices matter - Watch your citizens and village thrive, evolve into a prosperous city. Manage your relationships with the Kingdom, Clergy and your Labourers. Research new technologies, such as farming and taxation. Manage workforces and resources, enact legislation, hire soldiers for expeditions, endless choices, infinite amount of attractive generated maps.
But best of all, THE CHILDREN YEARN FOR THE MINES!
The city build I've been waiting for. Organic, sprawling cities that I can dilly dally with for hours. I can decorate houses on the micro scale and manage economy and trade on the macro scale.
Tons of fun when in early access, and the updates for the full release look fantastic! Shoutout to the devs for carrying the game through and working so hard.
It is a good game for a good 15-20 hours or so, after that content does start to run very short and the loop gets repetitive. After 30 hours there is very little if anything left to discover, you mainly build to see how large you want to get before it bores you out. The game is super casual builder with no difficulty really, but it's rather good at that with no grid, good building system, interesting "research path" mechanic and short but still varied production chains.
There are currently many games in this genre and if you can choose just one I wouldn't take this one. But if don't mind trying out different ones then this definately should be on your list.
Early access is fine. However, the demo version is more complete with additional upgrades to what is already in game but not offered in early access. You can spend hours without knowing it. Game still has a lot of potential and I can't wait until the full release.
Very relaxing to play and visually pleasing. Sometimes you just want to build instead of destroy, this game is perfect for that. There's very few consequences to just sitting back and letting things play out.
If you just want to build and relax a little you can. If you want to stress out and micro-manage to get achievements, you can. Great game that allows for several ways to play. Trying the Challenges is great. No Clergy?! No Soldiers?! No Promotions?! It gets wild. Lovely game, would 100% Recommend if you have a few days or weeks off or need a break from other games.
I love this game and it has really bloomed over its year of early access. Developers listened to community requests and were smart enough to get excellent modders on their team to create a really fun, unique, kingdom builder (They say I'm not the ruler but I don't believe it). We build the manors, the castles, the churches- we zone the land, we decide what's in the market. We send soldiers to help "the king" in his foreign wars so I'd say we're a very powerful landed Duke/Duchess or Baron/Baroness at the least. The replayability is endless with this game- the map generator is EXCELLENT- really love this addition. My favorite part is watching the realm come to life in/with the terrain (houses will build into hills giving a realistic earthbound look) and the organic road system. Building bridges over to isolated monastery islands is beautiful and fun. Paths appear where people walk so if you want a 90 degree grid of roads you're going to have use the zoning strategically in the early days. I really like this aspect and how alive this realm feels once you've got the market going. It's most certainly a top favorite city/village/realm builder. Also-there's a mod that introduces dragons! Mods are easy to browse and download right from the game's main menu, and I really do appreciate how easy the devs made it for me to update and keep up with mods used. They are setting a new standard of innovative gaming. One last shoutout for the art and music- both feel painted with love.
I put in 30 hours in JUNE 2021. I can't believe it's been almost 3 years!
Definitely liked the game and kept meaning to come back and check on the updates. A ton of work has gone into the game since I last played, and saw on I think PC Gamer that the full release was scheduled and almost here.
Redownloading now for the full release! Excited to see the finished project. Loved the more natural ways houses and things built up - spent a ton of time making my church and keep just right. Good job Polymorph Team!
better games with the exact same gameplay mechanics. just new lipstick on the same pig. waste of money
This game is soooo good to me. Very chill but still feels like you’re accomplishing something. I like the art style, the play style, the pacing is nice, it’s the perfect game to chill out on after a long day without being too casual. I’m not the biggest fan of too much war and conflict, some games make that a BIG portion of the gameplay, with ‘Foundation’ i was able to get away from that. There’s plenty to do, plenty to unlock, I can go on and on. The fact it runs smoothly on my fairly simple laptop. I love it. So far it has landed itself in my top 3 games of this genre.
Only downside is the update looks even better and I’m sad it’s not going to be available until the end of January. Almost don’t want to play until then.
Great game !! Very enjoyable and filled with lots of content. One of the best city builders !!
I first discovered this game via piracy back in college and played the very early access versions like crazy. Now that 1.0 is about to be released, I can't help but be extremely happy on how much the game has improved.
Congrats Polymorph games. If I could support you the 2nd time or more via DLCs, I'd do it in a heartbeat.
I don't want to start a turf war but Manor Lords wishes it were Foundation. This game does city management fun, and looks great (Manor Lords realistic graphics with this fleshed out and fun gameplay would be unstoppable.)
I know the game is currently in Demo, but I experienced very low performance even when lowering all the settings to a minimum, I think it needs some optimization.
I didn't have this issue with the early access with the old graphic, there the game runs as smooth as butter

There are so many aspects and mechanics in this game that I longed for when I played the Age of Empires 1 and 2. To list a few; being able to rotate buildings, place objects such as fences/foliage/benches/fountains, villagers create and maintain walking paths that eventually turn into roads, houses upgrade to fit more people, larger buildings such as your lords Manor or the Tavern have individual pieces that you can freely place to design your own building. The depth of the game is surprising and satisfying. Well done devs, I look forward to future updates and also seeing what mods players come up with. Would love a Dwarven themed one :)
this had been on my wishlist for a bit, then the demo came out and I downloaded it immediately. it did not take long to buy the full (early access) game after trying the demo, there are lots of resource/city management/builder games but definitely not all of them are very good. however building settlements in this game is REALLY FUN , it feels organic. and it's neat to watch the villagers create paths :^) decent difficulty as well, I had to start over a couple times because I messed everything up and got stuck.
Pro tip don't start on an island unless you want to grind for a bridge BEFORE getting any immigration.
Out of all the city-building and survival games I've played over the years this one always draws me back. I recently played the new demo for version 1.0 and it completely exceeded my expectations. I can’t wait for the full release so I can spend countless more hours on.
Do I recommend Foundation? Since I've played it, and while I was waiting it to come out of EA, I have bought a pile of city builders never feeling satisfied. The main selling point for me is that it feels "alive". The fact that you cant control how or where your villagers build their homes is delicious. It just makes the village feel like it has a mind of its own. Can't wait for the 31st of january to build my awesome castle.
Followed this game since its first year of Early Access. This has been a great process of development, with a team that really has listened to feedback. The game has been so fun to play and with the upcoming release of the game, and trying out the Demo version for the full release... WOW! I am blown away by the upgrades and the improvements from the Early Access model. I can not wait for the full release to go live and start building a new town in the upgraded version. I do hope development and upgrade will continue after release and the game continues to add more.
I've spent so many hours enjoying this game. Personally this is my "Cozy" game! Building a singular castle and trying maintain its resources, to a sprawling city-scapes, or humble little villages and hamlets across the landscape the epic landscape. This game has tones of unique different play styles for a city builder. And honestly the fact that the little citizens wander and create the roads is such a delight to watch. I am so happy to see this game finally come out of Early Access! Time to spend another 300+ hours come release!
The Modding community is also brilliant, so much creativity and personal touch can be added, thank you to all the creative people from devs to mods to people sharing their projects! Can't wait to see what people make.
I hope to see this game extend to MAC users in the future because I've had many friends and family ask me about this game and they just wish it was on MAC.
This game is already fun to play so the full release coming in January I can imagine will be amazing! I recommend getting this even before the full release. You won't be disappointed!
I've been playing this game through much of its early access and it's great now - not to mention very addictive. I'm really looking forward to the final release; with so many new features, they say it will feel like a new game and I believe it!
Good game, fun and relaxing.
I will admit i only found/bought this game because of Let's Game it Out.
Cool concept with roads and housing automated in a sense. I have enjoyed playing and is a fun game for a rainy day.
I really enjoy this game. When I am in the mood to gather resources and amass wealth, this has been a solid go-to. It's slow pace, beautiful art, and interesting neighborhood growth are all unique and well done. Progression can be fast or slow depending on your choices or the choices of your little people. I often leave this running on my second screen while doing other things online because I feel the need to play a game but have other things to do. It scratches the itch!
Having played many different city-and-resource management games in my life, I can confidently say that Foundation has quickly taken its rightful place among my favorites. The simplicity of the art style is shadowed by the complexity of the gameplay, and I found myself starting over multiple times to ensure I got the most optimal early game possible. Now, with almost 75 hours in the game, I feel I can confidently say that this game is a must-have if you enjoy city/resource management games.
Despite being in early access, this game is really enjoyable since the beginning. Updates improves things gracefully.
I really appreciate the fact that you don’t build everything. Villagers build their houses how and when they want to, it gives a nice medieval touch to the city. The military gameplay is too easy and too automated, but it’s being revamped before full launch.
Good game
The way the game works is a bit different, than what I knew. But it's easy to learn and sucked me right in. It's a lot of fun to play and organise your town.
While it's still relatively new, every time they add new content I get excited. It's a great cozy game. The way the villagers align their homes is both interesting and frustrating but I take sick joy in adding walls to make them reconsider the pathing.
this game is really good and would recommend. its come along way looking forward to 1.0
