A big update just dropped for one of my favorite games of the year. The developers have been amazing supporting the game and communicating with the playerbase ever since it launched on steam in early access, the game feels extremely well polished and fun to play so check it out if you’re interested in a challenging atmospheric basebuilder with a twist!
Greetings, Viceroys!
Embark on a Cycle-long journey toward the Ancient Seals. Grow your caravan, solve World Events, and plan your route to the ultimate goal!We’re very excited to finally share with you the extensive Cycle Overhaul that we’ve been testing on the Experimental Branch for the past few weeks.
Here’s what’s new:
New World Map System: Ancient Seals New World Map System: the Viceroy's Caravan New World Map System: World Map Events New Upgrades: Faction Trade Routes And more!
One of the most underrated games in Early Access right now. I am not even a big city building fan, but their cadence of updates and novel take on the genre has sparked an understanding of the entire genre for me, and I cannot get enough!
I am generally very skeptical of early access games because I’ve been burned before but Eremite games have really set a new standard with AtS. Regular biweekly updates, in-depth blog posts about the development or their reasoning behind major changes, constant presence on discord and willingness to discuss the game, twitch pre-release streams… I have no idea how such a small studio manages to pull all of this off, but they are really quite something and the game is truly amazing.
When I played it a few months ago, it felt complete enough to get a full release. I didn’t run into any major issues, and there was plenty to do.
