Whether it’s a big strategy game like Civilization 6 or a city builder like Cities Skylines 2, the process of building can be very schematic. You lay the perfect roads, you outline zones down the meter, and you, as the player, the pseudo god, have complete and final control over everything that gets made. It’s a wonderful experience, like building the perfect model, but it perhaps fails to capture the essence of a society; of a growing culture and empire, which expands organically and reflects the personalities of its people. Created by solo developer Tomas Sala, Bulwark Falconeer Chronicles is a much more fluid, much more joyful city-building game. One of 2024’s most underrated new releases, it’s just been completely revamped.
