Would be nice if I could hold a key to highlight the state of every district, though (current and target water levels).
Would also be easier to select the water carrier by clicking the district instead of the character (seems more intuitive when you play the card on the district itself).
fun game I finished it on normal and hard before stopping. Only issues I had with it was if you are at the end of your deck and you normally draw 4 cards but your deck is only 2 left you only draw those 2 instead of the discard being shuffled and you draw up to your normal 4. Feels like it waste a lot of turns drawing only 1-2 cards. Would also like to see a way to pay to draw extra cards or a building you can make that lets you draw an extra card a round. If you go the pay route maybe have it have a raising cost the more you use it. Otherwise the game was a lot of fun and I got every achievement other than playing it on Impossible. Good luck and Hope you develop it more!
absolutely fantastic masterpiece such a fun little peaceful game with a unique concept literally blinked and then realised I had been played for 98 turns only one problem which was I started having to keep skipping turns towards the end to get any building projects I dunno maybe I was just very unlucky I mean I had to skip like 80 turns it was really annoying however from what I can tell no one else had this problem, I never got any new projects that I could actually finish till the point I was racking up money I had 700 gold and -70 influence I think my game was glitched or something still well worth playing a 10/10
Wow! This is a masterpiece. Thank you for this amazing game experience, it felt like I travel back in time. I finished normal mode in 136 turns, I will definitely play again to complete the achievements. About the small texts, I wish there is an option to enlarge font size.
...wow. Not only is this a really fun game (beat it all in one really long sitting, took 122 game days), it does a great job of celebrating and getting us to remember history's unsung heroes, the logisticians and common people who did the real work of keeping society running and people alive, despite the interference of kings and nobles and other such "leaders".
This is a super fun game! I enjoyed the little history snippets as well! Edit: I also feel bad for the bottom left house, I kept them on 0 water for most of the game :(
Sublime and engaging mechanics, with lovingly designed environment makes the world really serene to play with. The subtle historical education comes as a bonus. Thank you for building this. Made it through on my second attempt. 150 at normal difficulty :)
This made my evening! Really engaging and interesting.
The tutorial is very helpful and you master the basics pretty fast. You also are never lost in this game, there's always a new water system to build and you can see clearly what you need to do.
Won in 124 turns, Normal Difficulty. Had a lot of fun!
loved it so much, didnt know that water work really that complex even this day water still flowing. clap for waterworks there for keeping our water clean
I'm so hooked to Scriptwelder since the 4 days to survive. Unique pixel art aesthetics, card game gameplay, some decent challenge in it...
Can be beaten in around 90 minutes, give it a try!
Can't wait for the next Scriptwelder delivery. I just wish this could be played in tablets more comfortably, an android/iOS port would be outstanding...

happened to me too. Maybe it's cause we had too much residents, causing a never ending loop of losing influence
sounds plausible but why no new projects only ones that are impossible to do without town sigil? which I never gotXD
no idea lol, maybe you just got unlucky

Naprawdę świetna gra, zrobiłem o niej recenzje na swoim blogu o grach indie i oczywiście musiała dostać najwyższe noty!

great game
can you make it possible to install?
I got never a dull moment, I don't fell so well, and wheel of fortune all in one game on normal difficulty!
I don't know what possessed you to make this game, but I'm so glad that you did. Beat it on everything except for impossible.

142 turns. normal difficulty and tons of fun ^_^ Thanks for making such a good game
I love it

Won in 124 turns, Normal Difficulty. Had a lot of fun!
normal mode turn 157 taking a break. I don't know how you managed to make this game so interesting and balanced.
this was a great game!
loved it so much, didnt know that water work really that complex even this day water still flowing. clap for waterworks there for keeping our water clean
i beat it in 2 hours, very fu
awesome game but maybe make it to where if you have the items you can click the empty slot to fill it with that card(for building stuff)
just realized that i finished the run in one sitting, great game and really sucks you in despite the seemingly simple concept, loved it
Another amazing scriptwelder game!
Really well polished and rounded game. And all that for free. Wow!
Amazing game loved it!
very good game, i was addicted to this game for a few days.
its also very satisfying seeing the town get built from the ground up
Amazing game!! I've been addicted for 2 days lol
Fantastic game!! I'd gladly pay for an offline version of this.
Actually Addicted
Great game, had me hooked.
Great game but when you beat it you should still be able too play on the same run instead of making a new one
