Finally got a chance to try this out. Overall it seems nice, but there are a couple things I either missed or did not work:

  • The list of things needed should include tokens or something. After a 6 or so "rounds", I simply couldn't continue playing due too being overwhelmed by having to keep track of were units were. The map already contains land features, discovery notes and "explored" markings. Leaving very little room to add "basic unit #4" to a hex.
  • Missing culture: It seems like the war gaming-aspect might work well in the game, but I had hoped for more of a "storytelling game". So having things that make the civilization feel like it has culture and such, would be nice.
  • Grey lines to write on, I really dislike writing in open space. So having grey guidelines would help a lot.
  • A clean hex map for custom play. I know there are free ones out there, but having one in the style of the game would be neat. And if so, make it a faded grey so a pencil is easier to see.

First, thank you so much for checking out the game! I greatly appreciate the fact that you played, but also that you took the time to give feedback!

1. Yes, tokens would be nice. I personally do a ton of writing and paper notes so I don't have need for them, but I can see how someone playing at a table space may want them. I think, in my next update, I'll add that as a suggestion, thank you!

2. Storytelling/culture for the civilization was actually a part of the original design, but I had to cut several things out to keep the game at about 10 pages of actual rules (which was my release goal). I am hoping to add an expansion which explores the storytelling aspect of the game in the future.

3. I think I can make a separate version of the Civ Sheet with gray lines, that way folks can print the version they want!

4. This is a great idea as well, and I'm a bit disappointed with myself in not asking the artist Alex to provide this originally. I'll see if he can put something together (or if I can do it) for my next update.

Thank you again for the feedback and checking out the game! :)
