Is Against the Storm Worth It? A comprehensive review

- Against The Storm is a Roguelite city builder, but what does that mean? It's a game of forming and re-forming production chains as your resources run dry and you don't know what you'll find as your woodcutters chop their way through the forest. Despite the cartoonish / fantasy style it has a surprising amount on common with both Anno 1800 and Frostpunk, so if you enjoy those games Against The Storm is worth a closer look.

This channel has insanely well made videos, glad i found it. Like genuinely one of the best review style content sources ive seen so far
@tm-si6jw thank you! I hope it's useful
Great channel. To the point, no bulls… Good voice and all. I really enjoy it. Keep it up man👍🏼
@michaelfrgegaard881 Thank you my friend!
Fantastic little game, one of the few games of the City builder genre that kept me playing for more than 5 hours
@sd_league I think it's easy to underestimate this game, but it's genuinely interesting how they've mixed up the city building formula!
This video has criminally few views!
Thank you so much for your review. I really like your style.
@MelvinGundlach thank you! I'm hoping the views will pick up but there's an unfortunate amount of competition out there. We shall see!
Thank you for the incredibly well-put video!
@EremiteGames Thank you for making an incredible game! (And for watching my video and leaving a comment, that too ☺️)
This is my favorite settlement/city builder. I have played it for about 150 hours. At this point I feel like I have probably played it enough though. I liked it more than Frostpunk which was more scripted.
@lastburning That's interesting to hear you feel like you've played it enough. Is there something specific you think they should include in future updates?
Very good video, love the style of the channel ! Thanks for the amazing work 👍
@onirale6156 thank you! I appreciate your taste in guitarists
@onirale6156 thank you for your kind words!
You had me at playable Lizards :D Although I think the overall gameplay stile might not be for me
@ninochaosdrache3189 Haha the lizards are cool! But the gameplay is definitely an acquired taste, aimed at those who are bored by the usual city builder play style
