Reus is out now; here’s our Reus review.

Reus, the god game that’s all about finding the balance between shaping a world to encourage growth and ruling with a smothering hand, finally has a release date: 16 May.

The new trailer shows off some of your nature gods’ powers and a fully developed village.

I’ve really fallen for Reus’ approach to the god game; making us more like a director than a dictator and only providing us with the power to encourage and influence development, rather than, say, place buildings directly.

Of course, so far we’ve only seen the game in action through trailers and developer diaries. We need to get hands-on with the thing to see if it works.
