Ben Frank - The Colonists is a fun and relaxing city builder sim with a robust offering of gameplay options in a deceptively simple package.
COG writes: A straightforward settlement building game with plenty of strategizing involved, The Colonists is both a challenging and relaxing simulation that can be played at your own pace. Although the controls are not ideal on a console, the easy-going gameplay makes this small drawback more bearable.
The Colonists evokes classic city building and world constructing games like The Settlers. It feels like the classic games of old, but also comes with some of the classic problems inherent in the genre. True fans of the gameplay will be able to overlook such issues and enjoy a wonderful and well-made title
WTMG's Leo Faria: "The Colonists is a game whose main gameplay loop makes up for how underwhelming its controls and excess of busy work can be at times. Not exactly the most creative of city builders in the market, but just like most of its peers, once you figure out how to properly make your city grow in a sustainable way, you won’t be able to stop playing it. If you can put up with its confusing interface, then this is a must for fans of Tropico and Sim City."
