Looks like it should be a nice relaxing colony building game. Harvesting trees works differently from most other games in the genre. In other games you usually designate an area for your lumberjacks to clear. In this game the lumberjacks will only clear a small radius around their camp. But, placing the camp removes underlying trees. This means that you need to hire forestry workers to plant new trees around the camp. So, it's best to disregard all the pre-existing trees around the map, as it will be more efficient to just grow new ones around the lumberjack camp fit for purpose anyway. The game has quite a few Quality Of Life features which is a welcome blessing to the genre. I look forward to see what happens in the game further on.
