“I love tycoons and painting trails on real mountains hooked me instantly, this snow melting and burying buildings is genius. But I'll wait to see how much content comes in Early Access, because I've played too many sims that launched thin and never grew. If it ships with at least three full regions and progression that hooks, I'll buy at launch.”
