What is meant to be a tree of unlockable patterns is more of a mish mash of unrelated upgrades. Another thing that goes unmentioned is that a totem comes with a light that indicates how happy it is with the house you put it in.Īctual crafting in the game is a bit of a let down. What the game fails to tell you is that an underground lair with a hatch at the top is probably the best first house you can make for your tiny buddies. What you do know is that housing materials are not available at the start of the game and take multiple levels of research to unlock. You are given a totem item in the first few minutes of the game with the instructions of building some sort of domicile and placing it in.

The control scheme by default is the easy and intuitive queue system. Starting on the surface of a planet rich in resources, it is your job to survive and thrive by carving out a home for your pint-sized family. You start the game with a single dwarf but your tribe will grow as you level up. All of these tap actions will enter a queue that will be executed by your dwarf underlings, sometimes in comically bad order. You will also have materials, items, and abilities you can select and then deploy back out into the world. The default control scheme will have you tapping resources to harvest and enemies to attack. You actually get a team of dwarves that carry out your commands and are AI controlled. The thing that makes CtW unique is that you don’t directly control your character most of the time. The side view perspective works amazingly well and with multiple characters to control, it very much resembles an interactive any colony.
