    The Colonists is a well-balanced strategy gem for fans of the genre; however, a few more game modes would have been good.

    Un juego myu entrtenido, simplemente es divertido y mas o menos adictivo a la par que desafiante

    Las posibilidades de más contenido oficial en este juego, es infinito, como la electricidad.
    Mala suerte que el Workshop de Steam, no tenga casi nada mas que mapas.
    Buen juego.

    A cute city/village building game like Banished, in cute robot setting.

    Good:
    - robots (your villagers) are cute
    - there is a relatively deep tech tree, with many buildings to unlock
    - you can fully retrieve resources of building you don't need anymore and then free up the space entirely for new buildings

    So-so:
    - like in all games of this type I've seen so far, the game's main challenge comes after you've passed the medium size of the village and start drowning in logistics problems. You'll watch robots carrying resources across the roads endlessly. The bigger the village, the more horrendous the inefficiences
    - some players may find the low-poly / flat-fill 3D graphics too simplistic or mobile-targeted, but it does the job fine in my opinion

    Bad:
    - it's strange that robots would need food for anything. Also, resources like wood and stone would better fit a medieval game, not sci-fi. It should have been tiberium / elerium etc :)

    A cute robot take on the Banished formula. You should check it out if you like village building and resource / logistics management simulators.

    A great colony building game with a fault that I keep finding. You control robots to build a colony, but still require wood and coal to build.A great colony building game with a fault that I keep finding. You control robots to build a colony, but still require wood and coal to build. I should be able to make iron if I can make large amounts of electricity. Otherwise, nice game. Might not have much long term gameplay. Expand
