  I see a lot of people on here complaining about how the game is unfinished and the devs abandoned it. This is TECHNICALLY true but it hurts to see people hating on the devs for something that wasn't their choice. When Riot bought Radiant Entertainment they were essentially rushed to get the game out then they were told that they couldn't work on it anymore. And although it isn't exactly finished, it's still a very fun game especially with the ace community expansion filling in all the gaps.

  I Love this game. This is alongside very few games in my steam library that I keep coming back to after months of not playing. I will play the game until I get to about 30-40+ hearthlings then the game starts to get choppy and laggy. At which point I start to lose interest overall and then start to move on to other things. Back when I first found this game I saw it had really active developers with weekly dev logs and an active twitch channel that they hosted dev streams on of them working on the game. I loved it. It felt so fresh and no other game since has been able to scratch the itch that this game gets when I play it. Then all of a sudden development went silent, The devs sent out one final community post saying that the game was being released as 1.0 and that no further work was being done on it. I was heart broken. Since this happened I started to notice more and more bugs that I was putting up with, with the thoughts "it will be patched out later" in the back of my mind but now knowing that they wont. It really hurts to see the game i loved playing like this. I'm glad that ACE is a thing on the steam workshop, but it doesnt do much to "fix" what is already broken. That being the engine the game runs on. The engine is old. It wasn't made for the amount of AI commands that can occur at once in a late game situation and it shows. If you get to late in a game cycle and have 40+ hearthlings things can get very very choppy as the game starts to need frequent restarts in order to keep up with itself and not dump its load on "idle" processes that slow it way down. I really want to give this game a good review because I love it to bits. But, I just can't. It hurts me to finally admit after so long that its not a good game. I know the devs sold themselves to RIOT so they could keep working on a larger scale on larger projects and make more of an impact but you could seriously tell that this game was a Passion of the developers when they were working on this. They have videos on YouTube from 9 years ago when they first started working on this and they worked on this so hard over the years only to abandon it so far into development. I started playing this game when it was in alpha 9 before multi story buildings were consistent to build and the building AI would fall over itself if you tried. And before even Rayya's Children were added. I still play the game to this day but I just cant recommend it in the state it is in at the price. If it was less than 10 I would say go for it but at nearly £16 its not worth it. While writing this I decided to watch the final desktop Tuesday they released simply titled "The End". And listening to the things that were being said about the game proved to me that the game was a passion for all the team from the beginning and that they loved making it. My only hope is that some day they will come back with a fresh passion and a larger team behind them to make the game I know this could have been.

  Unfortunately abandoned. Hit/miss on whether it works. Particularly if you have a newer system it wont run. Was a fantastic game when it was still being worked on. Edit; I was able to delete the folder labelled '64' in the game files and it fixed my issue, others enabled 'force 32' in the json folder. These don't work for everyone, so get at your own discretion. There is an on-going mod on the workshop called ACE that is being worked on, and you can join their discord for updates and the download.

  Game was in development in, like, 6 or more years, and it is still very raw. Played couple of sessions in different settings, the game progress is questionable, no way to recover if you get overwhelmed by monsters, some buildings just don't build, roads are bugged as hell, camera movement is tricky at best. Eh, do not recommend.

  I am a 55 year old biker and trucker father, and probably one of the oldest people playing this game. I am a single father to my Son, who is 14 now. My son got this game for from his uncle, so we installed it on his computer and he started playing. By the end of the week he had 24 hours on this game. This was horrible for me, as it was already hard for me to find ways to spend time with my son, as he is always out with his friends or just watching YouTube. So i decided to make a Steam account and get this game to see if I could maybe play alongside him. I loaded into the game and started playing but I was stuck on what you where supposed to do. I asked my Son for help and he hosted a game for me to join. I loved it as it was the best time I had spent with my Son since my wife had died. This game has ever since brought me and my son closer again and now we actually spend time together outside the house together as well. This game reminded me that there's fun to be had in everything, and it has brought both me and my son many happy memories. thank you stonehearth.

  While the game IS very promising and enjoyable at first, the developers don't appear to be updating the game at this point. The community has created a giant mod called Authorized Community Expansion (ACE) for this reason. However, the game is in dire need of optimization and after reaching around 20 or so citizens/villagers it starts to lag like crazy. It's not the buyer's obligation to optimize a game when they buy it. If you want 10-20 hours of gameplay that feels really unique with building your village then go ahead and buy the game. You should be able to enjoy it a lot. Just keep in mind that the experience will either feel undercooked after a while if you aren't using mods OR with mods like "ACE" it will start to lag and freeze. I give the vanilla game a 6/10 and the ACE version a 8/10. If you get a black screen with the "ACE" mod press F5 after you hear the menu music and wait. Hopefully that helps. Cheers to the guys behind ACE.

  Very fun. It's like a mix between sims and minecraft. An aspect of the game I really like is the building templates. As someone who is a trash builder I am very grateful for that lol
