I hope it runs better on other PCs, the steam deck is poorly optimized. Throws a exclamation in the bottom left and keeps saying it is loading the area. Set it all on low and still chugs. Not the best experience right now. If it gets better might purchase again. Until then refund requested.

Roadmap

About the Game
You play as a Monarch in possession of an ancient soul-stealing crown with magical abilities. With its power, establish a kingdom in a perilous wilderness and defend it from mutants and bandits roaming the land.
Build, gather resources, farm the land and more to turn your fledgling realm into a commanding, self-sustaining kingdom. As your fame grows, more will flock to your banner – but so will those who have come to overthrow you.
BUILD ANYWHERE
Construct a kingdom from scratch and transform the wilderness into a developed community. Decide which buildings go where, and then manage your citizens to automate everything from there! Don’t like where you placed something? Just pick it up and toss it somewhere else!
LIFT ANYTHING
Throw whole trees at the sawmill to make planks or run through the forest carrying your sawmill to absorb trees along the way! Resource gathering is fun and easy thanks to your crown’s power. Or maybe you have too many enemies around. Pick up monster nests and place them near bandit camps to have them fight each other instead (and obtain free loot!).
FIGHT LIKE AN ANIME PROTAGONIST
Villagers being eaten by mutants? Run across a lake at 100 km/h to rescue them in time! Being shot at by outlaws up in the hills? Spin-attack so fast that you take off like a helicopter and descend on them from the skies!
SURVIVE THE SEASONS
Manage resources and stockpile enough food to last the winter. Guard your farmlands (and peasants) from hungry mutants while waiting for your crops to grow. Keep polluting workshops away or see the land turn barren. Ultimately, keep your people happy or see them desert you for the outlaws.
PLAY WITH YOUR FRIENDS
Overthrown can be played offline in single player, or with a group of up to six friends in online co-op!

User Reviews
There is a lot of potential here. I really want to love this game, but it is early access and it does not want to run consistently. Tried it on Xbox and on PC with no improvement between the two. Frequently crashes. I started a new game several times adjusting settings lower and lower in the hopes of getting it to run. PC will work for a bit at first but the citizens just stop moving, doing their job or disappear entirely. It's quite frustrating because when it works, it's delightful but that is not the majority of the time.
