You have to manage people, food, tools, materials and every aspect of resource and population management. You manage an existing village and have to grow and expand it as the game progresses. It is a medieval city builder with a slight twist. While a long time coming, once banished did arrive, it met with lots of praise. I think that same person still runs everything now but you would never believe it.
I have this game and still find myself going back to it regularly.īanished began as an indie game on Steam designed and built by one person. You do need a fairly recent PC to be able to do this game justice but you are rewarded with a living, breathing city with day and night cycles, fairly realistic mathematic and population modeling and real consequences for your actions.
