Play some cards, see your cards gather points, throw in some caveats and the game gets addictive rather quickly

Early Access Review
You will die
You'll try again
Rinse repeat
Then you make that godly want and you'll kill yourself (again)

Early Access Review
I'm torn on this game. I like what they are trying to do. It is only that the game is lacking in several ways. I also know that it is in eraly acces and that is part of the problem.
As they progress with the game I will try to edit my review.

What I like about the game:
- The game has a distinct feel in artwork. Maybe a bit simplistic but it works.
- It reminds me of Black and White, without a monster pet.
- The seasonal changes do change the game and you need some planning for it.
- There is some micro managing going on. It mostly sticks to assiging a job to some one.


What I dislike about The Universim:
- There is not a lot in game yet. The tech tree stops about halfway. A lot of the later tech says 'coming soon' and some of those are desicion points making it that I would need to start over again if feel I made a wrong choice.
- The tech tree itself is also... different. Sure you start in the stone age and already I am able to produce a water wheel before I can hunt. Sure that game mechanic related, but they do it again while you are stil supossed to be in the stone age. I can build a way to produce electricity in the stone age and it is a requirement to advance toward the middle ages! Plus the tech tree feels very lineair. It doesn't give me a sense that I'm influencing an entire world. Maybe this will change with later updates.
- The pace of the game is sometimes a tad slow. But they added an accelerator! 2 clicks and.... not much. I'd like to be able to speed up the game some more.
- There are some bugs. I haven't encountered game breaking ones but they took away some magic. They are things like an info button missing info and instead showing a bit of code. Pretty annoying if you want to know more.
- Scrolling around the world feels slow and almost becomes cumbersome.
- Acquiring new followers feels terribly cumbersome. You either gain them by using your godly powers, which need time to replenish (and might but most of the time won't give you a follower) or through quests. They appear early on several times and are getting scarces later on. I'd like to see and be able to acquire followers in groups.
- The narrator can get annoying. After 2 or 3 times hearing him tell some event has happened I get it.


Conclusion:
The game is lacking a lot. The tech tree is terrible at the moment. Some mechanics are not really smooth. It feels like half a game (but hey early acces).
Do I recommend buying this game? No, not for the full price.
