    Take control of a settlement of the first modern humans, guide them through the ages in their struggle for survival.

    Dawn of Man is a survival/city-builder from the creators of Planetbase.

    The game starts in the Stone Age, and takes you up to the Iron Age, spanning more than 10,000 years of human prehistory.

    You will have to get your people to survive, expand and evolve, just like our ancestors, facing the challenges that the environment will throw at you.

    Hunt
    Animals were a vital source of food and resources for ancient humans. Use their meat to feed your people and their skin and bones to make clothing and craft the tools you will need to stay alive. Confront Mammoths, Woolly Rhinos, Ancient Bison, Megaloceros, Cave Lions and other species that roamed the earth at the time.

    Gather
    Collect a variety resources from the environment: fruit, berries, water, wood, flint, stone, ores. Use them to prepare food, to make tools and to build structures in your settlement.

    Plan for harsh times
    Fish is more abundant in spring, berries and fruit can be collected in summer and animals are easier to come by when it's warm. When winter comes, make sure to have enough non-perishable food and warm clothing in order to survive.

    Expand and fortify your settlement
    Build more homes and facilities for your people, in order to expand your population. Construct fortifications and craft weapons, so you are ready for when the inevitable conflict comes.

    Research Technologies
    Each new discovery will make it easier for your settlement to be able to support larger populations, but will also bring new challenges: increased food demand, morale issues and more frequent raider attacks.

    Build Megalithic Structures
    Our ancestors were capable of incredible engineering feats: mine massive rocks from the environment, transport them using sledges and construct colossal stone structures.

    Control Nature
    Unlock farming technologies to grow your own vegetables, so you can feed large amounts of people. Domesticate animals to produce food, resources and provide increased muscle power.

    One of the best strategy games on PS4! One of the best city building games I have played. It’s like Banished (pc) but with bandits. What’sOne of the best strategy games on PS4! One of the best city building games I have played. It’s like Banished (pc) but with bandits.

    A good strategy game with solid mechanics. Went looking in the PS4 marketplace for a new strategy game, and this one is fulfilling my desire.A good strategy game with solid mechanics. Went looking in the PS4 marketplace for a new strategy game, and this one is fulfilling my desire. There are certain things that could be improved, for example a better multiple select tool, but it’s been fun to play so far. Expand
