    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.    … Expand

    Dawn of Man on Xbox One is a strong entry into the RTS console market. Like all great games of this type, there are hours and hours of gameplay to be found within, not to mention the extra challenges on offer and specific hardcore option for the lunatics.

    Dawn of Man is historic base building strategy game and really successful one. It could be the one of the best releases in this year in itsDawn of Man is historic base building strategy game and really successful one. It could be the one of the best releases in this year in its own genre. The details are so realistic such as you can't collect berries in winter cause
    they not grown in winter basically and more stuff like this. Most of the players are familiar to this kind of games already but there's couple features that makes Dawn of Man special. First the details of course in many other games you assign a job to random workers and they do it but in Dawn of Man you have 2 options such as just "hunt the animal" or you can specifically pick the people who you want to go hunt. For any kind of job you can just go quick or you can hold more control in your hand since it's a strategy games you need to pick your decisions wisely it's up to you. Primal vision one of my favorites. You know Dawn of Man is in stone age and you progressing slowly from nothing to civilization. It's not easy to hunt down a big animal with a stone and stick so by using primal vision you can see which animal is easy to hunt for your current status. The game will automatically send enough hunters depending on the animal you picked how hard to kill or how big it is. Tons of more details and surviving rules in the game that aren’t mentioned in this review. This game I highly suggest to buy it add it to your Xbox One library!    … Expand
