So, Banished is on sale [No GA, sorry]

I heard that the Colonial Charter mod enhances the vanilla version by a tenfold, so I guess it's worth recommending it.

I´m a fan of this kind of game and have banished on GOG...but it´s not really a long term time-killer. Compared with many other games in the genre the production and economy is simple. There are no social / political aspects ..it has a nice design....but i guess thats it.

Reminds me I should give it a proper try as it lies in my library unnoticed since I bought it. :D

Liiiiiink.

Yeah I second the idea of the Colonial Charter mod. The base game is alot of fun as well. No political or military problems to worry about. But more than enough things that can wipe out your village in the game.

The premise is you have a handful of people that are banished from society. You must build yourself a little village, and balance your resources in order to survive. Plant crops, have people fishing, ect. Not the run of the mill city building game.

Before I bought this game on steam, a friend recommended it to me, so I tried it.
My schedule for a week looked like this:

• Get up
• Find some food in the fridge
• Play for 16 hours
• Sleep

TSTQe

i love this game. so probably some people will find this and get a nice new game^^
(didnt wanted to create a new thread just for a ga)

I was really looking fowarad to it, and had some fun I must say; however the game does not really offer much in a longterm. 3 or 4 playthroughs and you have pretty much seen all it can offer. It is still a great game though and for 5 bucks it's a steal.

It's a great game, was hoping that they release an update for it but it's been a while since it was released and mods are the only thing available.
Tried it before buying it on Steam, and spend A LOT of time on it, it becomes kinda boring after you maintain a sustainable amount of food and resources, that's why I think it'd be even greater than it already is if they updated it.

Last I played it, it was nothing more than sandbox - no missions, no objectives, just town to build and build and build.

Was fun for few hours, but not for me.
