It came out a couple days ago. I'm loving it so far. Though, it's really slow paced. It's more a micromanagement survival game, trying to keep your peasants from starving or running out of resources. The Steam achievements are actually really hard. Most of them have to do with having a high(relatively) population. I think I started a fresh game last night, and with 5-6 hours, my population is only around 40

I've been playing it over the last week. I've been enjoying it. My first town I hit an impasse because I failed to create a blacksmith, and ran out of tools. Then my builders just stopped building. The second town, nearly everyone starved after the first winter. Somewhere in year two I had four adults and two children. I decided to start a new one last night. I'm a good ways into it and I've got a healthy population with plenty of food and supplies. I think I figured out where some of my problems were.
I was on Reddit the other day and found a thread of where people were posting map seeds with screenshots. I found a really nice one with a good amount of forest and mountains and four lakes with rivers that connected them all. I can share the seed here if anyone is interested.

I picked Banished up today and am loving it! I too didn't get a blacksmith up early enough and my laborers were working with their bare hands. I can only imagine the dirty looks I was getting.
The game is addictive!

I picked up a copy of this today and I've played the first tutorial; I can see before I play any more I'll need to get some stuff done in real life. If I could only get some virtual workers to clean my garage!

That's a great guide Dort. I didn't know those things about the town hall. I'll have to make one soon.

I've got my wife hooked on this game. She's logged way more game hours than me at this point.

I've been working on the Tenure steam achievement, slowly. I'm at 400+ people now, but I've noticed my population dying rapidly. Lots of old age deaths and not enough new labourers(educated) to raplace them. Just waiting for a large group of Nomads to come help me out It's weird too, because I have more homes than families to fill them at the moment, so the population should be going up.
