Picked this up on Itch a while back and it looked interesting so I decided to give it a shot. Unfortunately it doesn’t seem like there’s all too much to it. You walk around a board, build buildings, fight the same few monsters with a dice roll, and eventually die when bad luck or carelessness drains your lifespan. The whole “generations” thing doesn’t amount to much as your offspring don’t get stronger over time, you just get a collection of traits and bonuses each life. There appears to be a remake of out now, but the older version is the one I played. Play the new one if you enjoy planning out a strategy across a board with a very limited number of moves, but it’s certainly not a 4X game as the description states.
