Clanfolk Reviews

I love this game so much, i love the simple game play and the goal to unlock things to survive. I would love to see more games like this. Its just very addictive and enjoyable.

I love this game. One of my new all time favorites. Even better than Rimworld but I am probably biased because I love history and old cultures, esp. the Scottish and Irish Clan families. I look forward to the beekeeping and other things being added soon. Thanks devs for all your time and a great game to enjoy.

It's easy to get a bit addicted and hard to stop playing (there's never a logical point at which to quit for the evening), but I have really enjoyed Clanfolk so far. I look forward to the next update, as I'm happy with my latest run but have unlocked everything there is so far. If you're looking for a less stressful (no combat) version of Rimworld, then this is the game for you. Note: I have not (yet) played any of the harder modes. I wanted a cozy non-stressful experience, so went with the easiest mode.

It feels like a Rimworld clone with Norland vibes. I like both of them and absolutely this game is yet another banger. Great for killing time, story telling or long hour sessions. Must play.

I love this game. I really enjoy settlement builders and i like family trees and traits so having a game with both and no combat is very relaxing. Even the music is relaxing. I can't wait to see where the game goes as its already had several updates during the time i've owned it. The only downside for me is that when i get to year 3 or 4 i tend to restart all over again. The newest update and the things said to be coming should resolve that in time. One day i may even commit to making it several generations before the restarting urge kicks in!

Dwarf Fortress meets Banished. Two of my favorites, and this one has a Scottish flavor which is very endearing. A serious labor of love, and the game receives frequent updates which make it more interesting. (And the bug reports are amusing, DF-style.)

Decent core game but needs a lot of work to make it anything more than tedious and annoying to play. Everything is insanely slow, genuinely about 1/3rd the speed of Rimworld, playing at x4 speed feels like x1 but everyone has the jogger trait. Work is done slow, processing material is agonizing, and something as simple as building a room can take days depending on how bad peoples ADHD is. Did I mention all your clansfolk have ADHD? Because they do, they will start a task and then midway through lose interest and wander off to do something else. Empty an eel trap but leave the fish rotting on the ground next to it instead of taking it back to storage. Partially mine a wall then leave to harvest some berries. Its especially fun with peat, since leaving them out in the rain stops them from drying and becoming usable, and you know they love leaving those after harvesting. Setting task priorities seems to not have any effect at all, they will still do whatever random thing pops in their mind and you cannot control them, they wont even bother putting out a fire while the room they are in burns down if they are busy talking about weather or something. Material costs are off as well. You will never seem to be able to keep up with how much you need. Harvest an entire peat bog, chop down an entire forest, mine out a full mountain, and you will still be low on supplies. Everything takes so much to make, the amount of work and material that goes into making something as simple as an iron pick is insane. This is exacerbated by the previously mentioned glacial speed of the game. The only thing that happens quickly in this game is food rotting, shit lasts like 5 minutes.

Well I Have over 700 hours in to it and Im having trouble finding the words to describe why I find this game so good. Maybe its the smooth game play, or the charming art style. Maybe Im mesmerized by the Soundscape or deeply satisfied by the game progression balance. Truth be told this game is special because it is made with love. When Ive had a long day and I need a comfort game this is what I play.

I enjoy this game, the concept of starting a new village parting from a small family/clan is great, it gives a level of challenge that I enjoy and the seasons make it even more challenging (I failed the first run due to the winter). if you enjoy challenging, resource and city planing games, give this game a try. the low quality images makes it easy to play in any machine.

my favorite colony sim at the moment. game is still in EA but its great for several years of game play
