I'm not sure what I was expecting - perhaps something like Skylines? Also, when I started playing I only had the game - no box or manual to look at or refer to.
So, I was pretty surprised to start the campaign and having to build a pre-historic "city"! All I had to worry about was pathing to food sources and wood was the only resource... I didn't play too long since, I'm neither particularly good at these games nor do I enjoy them that much AND, there was no tutorial either - so I was doing lots of things by figuring out the interface.
But, a few thoughts:
(a) This MUST be some sort of reverse port? There's a character - who looks vaguely like Will Wright but is rather chibi and talks very much like Japanese game characters often do (what I'd call a sort of super positive encouraging way of giving instructions) that I'd guess this game was made originally for Japan and then ported West? Or maybe it's a DS port of some Japanese SimCity game? I should look it up...
(b) I saved twice. And the loading times were REALLY long. This surprised me - for a DS cart game especially. I don't think I've experienced a game that took this long to save in a long time.
(c) Although I never made it past the pre-historic age, I'm going to assume that the progression slowly increases complexity and I realized that it's a pretty good way to onboard and tutorialize. And, you can also get cool things/features that are era-dependent. I'm guessing that there are certain city-features that were really important back in the day, but are much less important now?
