.Age is a cute little village creation game that gets pretty crazy!

Every time I play a new game where I get to build and create, I tend not to put it down for a while. .Age is a soon-to-be-released village builder that takes place in the dark ages. The developer describes the game as being almost a hybrid of Faster than Light and The Settlers, to give an idea as to what to expect in gameplay.

In .Age, you are the village elder in a town that has cursed with an apocalyptic curse. This causes all kinds of trouble for you and the villagers that you must protect while growing your village. You will need to gather resources and do research as your town grows, which will aid in the health and wealth of your citizens.

The game plays in a turn based style, giving you the opportunity to plan how you will respond to each crazy event that comes out of being a cursed town. You will face a wide variety of trials and tribulations, such as allergies, earthquakes and even volcanoes. Do you have what it takes to survive this terrible blight?
