jamahann: Got Banished on first round, played lots of it over last 2 days. It's a great game. Buy it, people!
Does it still suffer from the idle workers bug described by
kroetenschemel on page 14 of the reviews?
This could be the best city builder out there, you can get fairly easy into the game and it is really fun, unfortunately there are some bugs with the unit AI that kill the game. In a nutshell, your workers stop working and just idle around a meeting place. If you then save and load your game, they will go for one "tour" then start idling again, confirming that this is indeed a bug. This is an unfinished product. Avoid until it's fixed, at which point I would rate it five stars.
And how do I check to make sure I have the required Shader Model 2.0 support?
