Pretty fun game, the gameplay is quite addictive! I was planning on making a big city before making a castle but I "ran out of time" ! That's a shame why can't I play mooore :'( ? Visuals are neat but the game lack some juice. Screenshake, particles, blinky thing I don't know, try to make my brain cells go brrrrr. Well made, keep the games comin' !

This game is already awesome! The best I've done so far is building the castle in 8 turns by not building the gem harvester. I've played it probably a couple dozen times over the past few days, and I keep coming back. Although it already stands well on its own, I'd love to see you take it even further. My only complaint is that one of the times I played, my board was generated with trees and rocks fully surrounding the starting area, and there was no path to get out.

This was a really fun game, using the dice as s boost. My daughter shortlisted games for me to play and this was near top of the list. The only real small thing is I expected resources to disappear when you collected them or visible change as they were being collected. Great fun game.

Omg how hard is this? I played 3 times allways failed. BUT i played 3 times. Because it`s fun and has some new ideas. I love the art and the design. Well done! Liked it a bunch.

Loved the game. I felt like the gem harvester is maybe a bit pricey considering that the gems for the castle can be farmed in a day but great concept :)

This was really good, I imagine I'd get deep into a full game version of this. Love the art style, love the nuances in the mechanics. Everything about this just really worked for me. Fives all the way!

I love the artstyle! The game was surprisingly intense at the end, especially when I discovered on the 9th turn that I can only place the castle on sand (you should probably say that somewhere haha). 10/10 amazing job

Cool Game! You should add a tutorial on the game's page, but overall pretty nice game! Keep up the good work!

It's fun! Love the sounds and arts in it. It will be better if I can remove my buildings. But after all, I  enjoy this game!

Very cool! It took me a while to figure out what I was trying to do, but once I did, I enjoyed this a lot. The tight time limit made it seem pointless to build the harvesters for the most part (because they take mana, which you could have spent on gathering manually, and a bunch of the resources you're trying to get by building it), though if they were built early on it might have been more useful? (But e.g. the gem harvester would probably not be very useful ever, given how much you need to get before you can build it.) My only successful attempt had me ignore the harvesters entirely.

Anyway, great job with this.

Really liked the concept. Had some great replayability and i love the art style. Great job.

This was really difficult! Took me probably 20 attempts to eventually build the castle on the sand! :D

It was important to strategically build things in the right order. Cool game!

My best result was completing the game on Day 9.

This was a really fun game. Love the autotile system!

Feel free to check my game out if you have time!
