Let me google that for you..
I talk about the game #RIMWORLD.
„RimWorld follows three survivors from a crashed space liner as they build a colony on a frontier world at the rim of known space. Inspired by the space western vibe of Firefly, the deep simulation of Dwarf Fortress, and the epic scale of Dune and Warhammer 40,000.“ // src: rimworldgame.com
As I red this I could not imagine what it is like because I didn’t know anything about Dwarf Fortress or Dune and nether Warhammer. My lonely and insecure gaming-heart was like a blank sheet of paper. At university an old friend told me: „Hey if you are bored and have some time, try playing Rimworld…“ at this time it was in the early Alpha.
„RimWorld is a story generator. It’s designed to co-author tragic, twisted, and triumphant stories about imprisoned pirates, desperate colonists, starvation and survival. It works by controlling the “random” events that the world throws at you. Every thunderstorm, pirate raid, and traveling salesman is a card dealt into your story by the AI Storyteller. There are several storytellers to choose from. Randy Random does crazy stuff, Cassandra Classic goes for rising tension, and Phoebe Chillax likes to relax.“ // src: store.steampowered.com
What exactly is the goal of the game?
„Manage colonists' moods, needs, individual wounds, and illnesses. Engage in small-team tactical gunplay. Fashion structures, weapons, and apparel from metal, wood, stone, cloth, or futuristic materials. Fight pirate raiders, hostile tribes, rampaging animals, giant tunnelling insects and ancient killing machines. Tame and train cute pets, productive farm animals, and deadly attack beasts. Watch colonists develop relationships with family members, lovers, and spouses. Discover a new generated world each time you play. Build colonies in the desert, jungle, tundra, and more. Manage quirky colonists with unique backstories, traits, and skills. Learn to play easily with the help of an intelligent and unobtrusive AI tutor.“ //src: store.steampowered.com
So actually, there is no goal. It’s just you, the planet you just created and the story.
In my last episode I the story was about a lonely guy in the desert, eating just human flesh and making his clothing and wardrobe out of human skin. I don’t know why but somehow this attracted a lot of people so they joined his colony but as Roy had a great lack of providing food to non-cannibalistic settlers so he had no other choice to murder and eat them. Someday Bill died on foodpoisening. End of the story.
Each person’s background is tracked and affects how they play.
Colonists develop - and destroy - relationships.

So now I am new to peakd and the hive community and I really really love the Rimworld Community, so I thought we can combine it in a new community for the game Rimworld. As I am pretty new to this I do not have enough HIVE to start a new community on this platform. LOL
I really would appreciate it if you can help me out here.
Thanks,
RHZM
