Setting to redefine the city-building genre, Foundation puts the emphasis on the organic aspects of urbanism in the cities of old, powered by Polymorph Games’ proprietary game engine, Hurricane, which allows for full mod support and is optimized for the thousands of moving parts that come with building humongous cities.

NoobFeedMezbah TurzoFeb 202583/100Overall, Foundation is a game that takes a while to get the hang of. It is incredibly complex and requires a lot of thinking, but it manages to ease you into it in a neat way. That being said, it does leave you hanging afterward, leaving you on your own to figure out the exact specifications of most of the mechanics.

LadiesGamers.comMina Smith Feb 2025As I mentioned up top, I’m not usually a huge fan of building sims. The majority of the genre is focused around warring your neighbors and feel a lot more like RTS games than sims sometimes. However, Foundation is a cozier version of the genre, and I love everything about it. It’s cute, it’s got a great tutorial, amazing atmosphere, colorful and beautiful graphics, good sound design, and a whole lot more. I can definitely recommend this to anyone, even if you’ve never played this kind of game before
