How well does this play?

[Meatball841]

I know a lot of the time survival/ civilization games don't really transfer well to console. Is Dawn of Man done well?

 

 I want to play this but on the fence about PC or Console.

I'm also curious about this one. Just discovered it today and read a pretty decent review of it but would like to hear from more people. Interested to know how challenging those milestones are as well, especially the hardcore ones.

I need to get round to writing up my review  

It's really good. It's by the same team who did Planetbase, the survival game set on another planet. 

This game is all about building up your colony whilst surviving the winters and enemy attacks. It's quite easy at first, with only basic survival needs required, but it eventually brings in bigger beasts to slaughter and opposing colonies who will attack you and wipe out your men if you've not got good defences.

I've not really looked at the trophies whilst I've been playing so I'm not sure how challenging things will be, but if you like games such as The Settlers or Age of Empires, or even their previous Planetbase game, then you'll like this one. There are a few sandbox stages, the campaign and some 'mission' scenarios as well - plus they've recently added a bunch of new buildings and mechanics into the game.
