Timberborn is a definite favorite of mine. Whiskerwood looks very similar. I haven't had a chance to try it yet, but I'm thinking I may like it more than Timberborn in the long-run due to having more interesting end-game goals to work toward.

I played whiskerwood for the first time recently. Also thought it would be similar to timberborn but it is very different. You have manage the whiskers individually to give them the right job if you want them to be efficient. I like that you can build underground and that in later game you'll be able to use belts so I'm looking forward to discovering that system, also the steam power stuff.

Good to know. I've checked out some Let's Plays of it, and the differences still look fun. I guess I better get on it.
