Builder game in a wasteland like setting
This game is a twist on the recipes brought forth by games such as Populous, or other God like games. You are responsible for the building of a postapocalyptic civilization, and thus, you have the kind of resources you would imagine, plus the perils of an irradiated, un-hospitable zone. Therefore, the game manages to have different and interesting personality among the more vanilla like builder games, and this can be a turn on or a turn off for many people. The beauty of the game is thus in seeing a barren land get habitable, get a new lease of life again, but that's going to take some time and some careful planning. You will get the usual limited squares action map, which can be scrolled through. You can mark any square and mine it, build on it or hover over it to learn something about it. Graphically the game is pretty ok, with nice tile sets. You'll find it more appealing and palatable if you've had experience before with similar gameplay styled games, as it takes some time to get used to it, due to the limited view action map. But otherwise, Utopia is a very playable and well polished game.
