The Universim is the latest world-building god game from the minds at Crytivo. Rule over your people as a god among nuggets. Read on to learn more about its story and gameplay.
Everything We Know About The Universim
The Universim Story Plot
The Universim does not follow a particular narrative, as is par for the course for a city-builder simulator game. As the god of the Nuggets, you write the story of their people on the tapestry of history. By your hand, cities, countries, and wonders are made. Through your wisdom, their civilization can be optimized to eventually reach the stars. Once the story of this particular planet has been written, you can move on to the next and start a new genesis.
The Universim Gameplay
The Universim plays like your usual city-builder but with a few key differences. Firstly, this game also falls under the category of a "God Game", and so the scope of your management does not end at the city level. You will be managing the resources, logistics, research, culture, technology, and progress of an entire planet as if it were a city.
This entails a lot of micromanagement, about as much as you'd expect from a game where you're a god. It's very hands-on in the beginning, with your direction of hunting parties, small tribes, and Stone Age technology, but it eventually opens up to metropolises that would make even the most hardened micromanager cry.
This game is an RTS, but you are afforded the luxury of pausing the game to plan ahead. Such planning will be a great boon to the foundations of what would be your own civilization.
Massive Tech Tree and Fun God Powers
No RTS simulation game is complete without a tech tree and The Universim has a massive one for you to discover and unlock as you progress through the ages. Covering a historical timeline from paleolithic to futuristic times, you're gonna have a positively divine blast going through each research perk and finding out what your nuggets can do next.
In addition to that, you get your very own suite of godly powers to further meddle with the affairs of your mortal subjects. Telekinesis is just one of many that you can use to manifest your divine influence on your planetoid.
