Have you ever wanted to sit down with a city-builder and not deal with the nitty-gritty of research, resource allocation and storage, the more complex needs of your civilians and so on? If so, Bulwark: Falconeer Chronicles may have something for you.

From the same developer as The Falconeer, it offers a precedented amount of building freedom with intuitive tools and a gorgeous world to explore. As you venture through the world, various factions can be brought to your bulwark, though balancing the population becomes necessary. Otherwise, there are random events and other outposts to discover, supply routes to secure and maybe a little war to wage.

While it does lack many of the finer depths of the genre, not to mention a more involving narrative, Bulwark: Falconeer Chronicles delivers on its premise with aplomb.

    It DOES redefine the city-builder genre with its focus on individual characters - something that (despite being a crucial factor in every organization in real-world, history and fiction) is always overlooked in city-builder and RTS games.

    Managed to balance Relations between faction and got all of them to live in my megacity That I am proud to say I made a bridge between islands in chapter 1 or campaign 1.

    I really struggled with the minimalist controls in the demo. Just me?

  • @vadenummela9353
    The game feels awfully limited by simply lacking more variety and number of tradeship captains, and free resource extractors.
  • @Wimpiethe3
    Tedious, slow and not very deep. Looks great in artstyle though.

    With all honesty, I’ve regretted paying the full price. I thought there is more to the game then what Demo does show. I was wrong. The game is just an expensive Townscapers.
