    Been eyeing this one up on steam, looks very interesting...

    Has anyone here got it yet?
    £15 on an early access indie is a lot, but I'm getting drawn in...

    I paid more then that for plenty of indy (kickstarter) games that are not even in alpha yet...

    Yeah, but £15 is a lot for an indie game in general.

    I've paid €18+ for a few, and then discovered I didn't really like them at all. It's the chance you take. If you're on a tight budget and need it to count, maybe wait for full reviews on the game.

    It looks really good and has been getting a lot of praise. Holding off for a bit myself but will pick it up at some point!

    I caved and bought it.

    It's buggy, as to be expected at this point, but I can see a lot of potential to it.

    Once complete, I can see it being a very popular game, especially if they allow a multiplayer mode.

    I bought Godus, and it's buggy as hell. It was only 40% complete when the beta was released public, fine I thought - won't be long until they add to that and there will be updates. Nope, still waiting ...

    Not sure if I'd like Castle story. I never played, nor was I interested in minecraft. Is this much the same? or a lot more to it?

    it's different
    you build a little team of guys who can be workers, archers etc, collect resources and build your castle brick by brick.

    Haven't played survival mode yet, so not sure what the deal is there, but I like the building. You lay out a blueprint brick by brick and leave your guys to work away on it.
