    Interesting concept, easy game play you can lose a lot of hours too. However, it seems the devs have left the game. A lot of little bugs and then there isn't a whole lot to do once you get into the river system and the few upgrades. Currently, the achievement system doesn't work correctly and no updates since launch, so I have to say this game is not recommended. Hopefully an update comes through at some point.…

    Stop with 10 Gb patches several times a day maybe? No one needs this fragmentation bomb on their disks, should've hired some real coders.
