Ze kwamen naar deze planeet en ze kozen jou. Ze verhieven jouw volk en beloofden grote voorspoed. Ze gaven de wijsheid en de middelen om jouw steden tot in de hemel te bouwen. Ze leerden je de wegen van cultuur, wetenschap en oorlogsvoering. Ze beloofden kennis aan iedereen die bereid was te leren.
The way the resource and wisdom tracks feed into your city-building choices kept all four of us leaning over the table the whole game. Our group usually drifts during longer strategy titles but nobody checked out once. The uplift theme actually comes through in how you grow your people.
First playthrough took us nearly three hours because nobody wanted to stop building once the alien tech started unlocking. The way your city literally grows skyward as you earn their favor is such a satisfying loop. Already planning a second game with a different strategy.
The way the game weaves the alien backstory into every mechanic is brilliant—you genuinely feel like you're building a civilization under their watchful eye. I've already played three sessions back-to-back and the city-building decisions keep getting more interesting.
