There is almost nothing that mars this game. Lets begins with the awesome stuff.Number one, the number of map seeds is hundreds of thousands, if not millions. That means that every map will be different. This is a massive step up over, Sim City (or should I say Sim Town). In Sim City you get a few select regions with a few select city spots to build upon.
Number two, the maps can be HUGE. Again, I draw comparison to Sim City who in their most recent iteration, which provided the smallest maps of any Sim City game to date. These maps are expansive, lush, and complex. Rivers and lakes, mountain ranges... massive.
Number three, it is challenging. There is no point in your villages life that you can let your guard down. Population growth, which is required lest your people become old and die off leaving behind no successive generations, alone can kill your whole town. Population requires food, warmth, wood, supplies. As it grows, it strains your reserves, if your reserves dip... well... people die. You have to balance growth against supplies. This is not easy to do... at least at first. Heck, my first few games on 'easy' ended in ghost towns.
