+ Interesting concept which simulates building up a settlement in a very simplified way
+ A lot of strategy and pre-planning is involved in order to complete your objectives

- Overly complicated mechanics that are a bit hard to understand at first. My main issue is with the "dice" essentially every dice represents a different type of worker, but you also need to sacrifice them in order to do anything in the game. (For instance in order to cut a tree you place a worker die, sacrifice another die to move, sacrifice another to cut the tree, and then your original worker die will vanish)  To me, it was just hard to visualize, it was like if I have 6 workers why can't I assign them all to a task? Why do I have to sacrifice others in order to perform actions? Why do they disappear after an action is completed? 
- Due to how simplified the graphics are in this game, it's a bit hard to tell what some things are or what you are doing, especially when first starting out.

Overall, I just did not personally find it that enjoyable even though I did take the time to play through part of the tutorial and watch the tutorial video to learn how to play.
