The developer knows this and plans to add in tons of extra mechanics including the likes of: law and order, hostile invasions, nobles and their demands, more biomes, play as other races and so on.
#King under the mountain patreon update#
While a lot of the basics are there, seasoned building-sim fans will notice it lacking a lot too. Welcome to the monthly King under the Mountaindev update This month sees Alpha 7 released (as of yesterday) which is the single largest update of the game so far The main part of development for this alpha was extending the calculation and rendering of water flow into channels and pipes that can be dug by the player. It will need sprucing up a bit when its progressed in Early Access for sure.
Outside of that though, it's quite minimal and stays out of your way. The visual style of it will be instantly familiar to anyone who has played the likes of Prison Architect and RimWorld, with the small floaty characters and colourful tile-based building. It's particularly a problem during the tutorial more than anything, as the large ugly text boxes take up a lot of the screen. King under the Mountain is a fresh take on building up a settlement, this time with a fantasy setting that looks a bit nordic. The UI is currently a bit lacking with it being rather basic (and ugly) but it does at least get the job done. It's really quite relaxing and easy to zone-out with. Most of my time has been largely due appreciating all my little people wandering around doing their chores, and me setting up more for them to do as I continued to expand. Much like other such building and management sims, it's whatever you make or do with it. There's a lot to like about it already with plenty of hours of building and expansion possible. It's largely like a mix of RimWorld and Dwarf Fortress, that really is the easiest way to explain it, although it doesn't (yet) have the depth of either but it's initial showing is thoroughly promising and reminds me of the early days of both aforementioned games.
