I play with terrain type CC cold valleys, terrain size large, harsh climate and medium starting conditions. Disasters are turned on.
Banished is a city- or village-builder from 2014. It has been developed by Indie-Studio Shining Rock Software. It is a one-man-studio run by Luke Hodorowicz. It has great AI and realistically simulates your villagers. Basically, you start with a couple of families of banished people and need to establish a more or less self sustainable settlement (there is some trading).
Banished can be modded and in this Let's Play I play with the Mod Colonial Charter: Journey, version 1.76 by Black Liquid Software. It adds tons of new production lines, buildings, decorative elements and so on and so forth.
Currently, VampiroGaming has 4,500 views for Banished across 106 videos. This game accounts for over 1 day of watchable video on his channel, roughly 4.96% of Banished content that VampiroGaming has uploaded to YouTube.
