I like the look of the new Anno, it does make most of the others look unpolished, but that's money for you, I guess.

Foundation looks like it would be good with a slightly less obnoxiously kiddy colour palette. What about those of us who want to create little medieval model villages like sad bastards... who aren't aged under 7?

Workers & Resources looked like a beefed up re-run of Transport/Railroad Tycoon, albeit one that could easily have existed 14 years ago.

Not seen Industries of Titan. That looks pretty cool.

I've got hopes for Starmancer. Enough  to back their kickstarter at least.

Unfortunately Dwarf Fortress and the old Sierra city builders have ruined more casual city builders for me. I just can't seem to stay engaged without a high difficulty curve. Worst being Tropico which tries so hard to put pressure on you and gives you all these cool ideas about bribing and secret police and breaking protests but is just so piss easy I've never had to use any of it.

Haven't tried Frost Punk yet.

But I will say that after recent years the fact there is a list of 10 city builders coming up does fill me with hope.

Hard Ancient Life is a really funny name for a game. The game itself looks the visual equivalent to Pharoah what Theme Park World was to Theme Park.
