Thoughts on the game Timberborn (store.steampowered.com)

Has anybody given this game a try? I've been considering it for a while, but money is tight. Curious if it was worth it.

Or conversely, other other new simulation games you would recommend?

I really love it! It is one of the better city/worker management games out there with a neat unique twist. It has a variety of maps, a few difficulty levels or you can make your own.

Early on I would run into performance issues but the devs have really optimized it so now I can have several hundred beavers running around all with their own tasks and needs.

It will absolutlely allow you to fail and you will know it is your fault and not a roll of the dice. It does not hold your hand but it is fair, and the tech progression is good.
