Gameplay & mechanics81% positive · 62 mentions
“You wanna play Civ, but without all those pesky mechanics like diplomacy, war, or a whole lot of choices? Well have I got a game for you. Played for a total of 4 hours, beat the 'saga', and felt like I basically got a load of the entire…”Recommended · Steam review · Jun 2026 · 4 h played · Report / request removal
Difficulty & balance82% positive · 60 mentions
“A really sweet, very atmospheric game; the difficulty can be high at times, but I found it to be very manageable. What I find rather sad is, that one quickly discovers *everything*, and from then on it's basically repeating the same in…”Recommended · Steam review · Feb 2026 · 2 h played · Report / request removal

“Cute little digital board game. Quite simple and straight forward, more on the cozy end, fitting with the kinda nordic melancholic-cute art style.

I bought on sale (60% off) it was worth!”Recommended · Steam review · Jul 2025 · 5 h played · Report / request removal
Story & writing67% positive · 15 mentions
“Landnama, developed and published by Sonderland, is a strategy experience that strips the genre down to its essentials and rebuilds it around tension, scarcity, and careful decision-making. Rather than focusing on expansion through…”Recommended · Steam review · Mar 2026 · 13 h played · Report / request removal

“I'm mostly confused. It threw 11 blocking text pointing at the stuff right off the bat before I was able to play for 5 sec. Zero context and threw a bunch of information I immediately forgot. Then I kept bumping into "already built" when…”Not recommended · Steam review · Aug 2025 · 1 h played · Report / request removal
