Thanks Schatt for sharing your thoughts. :) The original idea was to guide through a kind of story, but of course balancing of buildings is also important, that’s why I appreciate every bit of of every comment here. There is also a note where I write everything mentioned here and by playtesters who write me elsewhere.
You get Insights which will boost your mana wells as well. We just need to be a bit more patient. But as mentioned before, I will have a look at the balancing and adjust some things in future patches.
Thank you again for your time! :)
