"Against the Storm" is an unique game that tackles a lot of issues I have with base-building simulators:
You won't get stuck in a sprawling city where one half is underdeveloped, and the other half is way ahead. You won't get bored because the gameplay loop is short and rewarding. The city-building level usually wraps up right as things start to get messy, which is very satisfying. You can barely win, leave that city behind, and move on to the next one. Hell, you can even lose, and the game will still reward you with some resources for upgrades.

I've been playing this game extensively before the launch, and even then, I got hooked almost instantly. Now, the game looks a bit different, a lot of work has been done, and I'm personally very happy with the end product.

Totally recommended.
