Anyone else enjoying Reus? Picked it up a few days ago for 9 bucks from steam, already got 20 hours played.
I held off posting about this, and now that I desired to do so...someone had the nerve to beat me to it. Damn you to a hell consisting entirely of telemarketers, sir!
My only real issue with the game is that you can't really play it without the wiki open in the background. The depth is too much to have in mind when you play. Heck, even with the wiki I often find myself making the "wrong" choices (that is, less than ideal for my current world and its inhabitants).
Agreed. I find myself wishing that the game included all the wiki comments. As it is, I've decided to print them out, and proceed that way. That aside, it's a very clever little game that carefully conceals its choke points, and offers the players plenty of variety as it slowly doles out new, more complex variants in its rules.
Overall a very thematic game with a vast complexity that doesn't lose sight of having fun gameplay. Its only shortfall is that it doesn't do a good job at visualizing the complexity in-game.
The graphics don't bother me particularly, since the thing runs fast, and can easily work in a background window. Hell, it could have been worse--Dominions 3--and I would still be playing it.
