    Каждый раз, когда я вижу эту игру у меня в голове сотни смешных флешбэков из игры.

    After 400h i can assure it's good. When my colony isnt getting raided it is mostly enjoyable and good

    One of the best games ever.
    If you can get into the game, it can be whatever you want, a hotel-sim, a game of a nomadic colony or a one man adventure game. The only thing that is fixed in Rimworld is the amount of storage you have to download various mods. Great support, great community and truly amazing gameplay!

    One of the best game.
    Very addictive, lot of mods. Great level up/skill system of settlers, needs, research trees, options, animals, .... and many other
    What could be better: - kingdom DLC - there are lot of skills from chips for manual usage. I like automations, manual clicking them is what i hate in Starcraft/Warcraft games - many units and control one person with special skill.

Should be option for autouse by AI and more designed for less AI mistake chance or passive. Whole DLC is not very intuitive at first.
    - world map actions, new settlement management, no roads, could have better solutions. Only mods are solving lot of problems.

    Possibly the best colony management game in existence. Endless replayability, endless user created mods to keep the experience fresh when you get tired of it. I keep coming back to it, over and over again. There's just nothing else like it.

    An incredible game, and sitting at 1,500 hours, it's definitely my favourite game of all time. Absolute masterpiece.

    ❗️Please read❗️
    I just wanna say that almost all the bad reviews on this game didn’t even play the game. They just saw the word “storyteller” and thought it was just a story generator game but that’s just the ai that does events and stuff it’s a good survival game but you can control multiple people so it’s like the sims but a survival game also you can get much more technology than in

    An absolute blast and easily my favourite game of all time. This game is a strategic colony simulator that is supposed to be a story generator, which it is, but is otherwise just a simplistic game that is very good. The modding community for this game is insane, from something as simple as the Vanilla Expanded mods to as crazy as A RimWorld of Magic.

    CAN'T-STOP-PLAYING : seriously, an incredible game with never the same story / save, lot of contents, mods, meaningful extensions

    If you like any management-style game, RTS even, go for it

    An inspiring game for colony-based games. You gotta feed them all and take care of your defense.

    One of the best games of all time. This game will have you saying stuff like "maybe video game addiction is for me!"

    Muy buen juego, me encanta, le pongo un 9 porque creo que practicamente podrian actualizarlo cada mes pero con los mods se soluciona, tambien hay bastantes dlcs "caros" respecto al juego

    My favorite colony management game. My favorite part is the mentally ill pawns.

    Великолепная игра. Куча возможностей, ситуаций, механик, отличная поддержка модов, неплохой визуал и Рэнди!
    Не знаю что ещё и сказать, игра стоит каждой копейки, хотя я и не особо фанат стратегий.
    Даже если вы не любите какие-либо трудности, ограничения или вам просто хочется чего-то новенького - всегда есть настройки в игре или опять же, те же моды. Чего только RJW с аддонами стоит :))

    The essence of this game is to appreciate the drama unfolding among the humans in the colony. I've put over 2,000 hours into this game, and I still have a lot left to do. Great game with DLC included.

    Deceptively good. What appears at first as a low effort strategy game, is actually a surprisingly deep game of strategy and settlement building.
    This game manages to reimagine the genre.

    The diversity of environments significantly enriches the game and challenges experienced players in new conditions every time. It’s a hellishly good game – for me an addiction that makes me go back to it and reach for more and more. [13/2018, p.84]

    A satisfying colony-building sandbox with a lot of replayability that suffers from a lack of polish in the UI. A great aesthetic and quirky sci-fi take on the genre mean there is a lot to like here, it just takes a little digging to get there.

    An imaginative management game but a weak story generator.
