The express menu allows players to highlight anything – and I mean anything – and pop up a radial menu with context sensitive prompts. Within the building menus alone I could easily build the structures I needed, construct roads, and even destroy them: all without having to dig through a maze of sub-menus. If I need to build tents for my populace I would be a simple three buttons away, with little downtown wasted to figuring out where everything was. Intuitively, the most important options have a face button assigned to them, so popping in and out of the command navigator is quick and easy.

To make matters worse, the people have two dispositions that need to be maintained: Hope and Discontent. Food is scarce, resources are limited, and each day is a battle to survive the harsh new world. ![]() ![]() The temperature of your city has to be precisely balanced – with every passing day becoming colder and colder – to prevent illness and death among the populace.
