Fun for the first 5 hours, but beyond that point it's mostly just a frustrating slog - build a town, figure out that you forgot to do something and it has doomed everybody, watch them all die, then start again from scratch, over and over until you learn how to keep these lemmings from killing themselves.

The most frustrating part by far is your citizens' obsession with firewood - it's so easy to run out of it, and if you do run out, it sends you into a death spiral. People start buring coal instead, which means you're no longer able to make Steel Tools, then everybody's productivity gets cut in half because there's a shortage of tools, then a bunch of people die from starvation, but because there are now so many empty houses, the survivors breed like rabbits and your city is flooded with hungry children that can't work.

The worst part is that there's no way to stop them from switching to coal. People will starve without the slightest objection even if they're currently tending an orchard full of fruit, but if they get a little cold, they'll happily destroy your entire supply chain and doom your civilization just for a few extra minutes of warmth.
