however, mining is dull and metal transportation is an incredible chore, even before iron and boats. surtling cores are too rare and/or furnaces and kilns need too many of them.

this game goes from the most relaxing and enjoyable base building game to an absolute chore fest without satisfying mechanics. i just wanted to unlock stone building pieces, but it's not worth it...
