Rather than bloviate about Dawn of Discovery, the (mostly) wonderful new city builder from Ubisoft, I'm just going to use the "postcard view" to show you some of the places I've been. Above is a typical starting harbor, with a couple of fishing huts to the left, a warehouse in the center, and a harbor master's office to the right. As a city grows, this area will develop into a bustling harbor. But in the early days of a game, this is what your center of commerce looks like.

Look closely and you can see the busy fisherman. Or better yet, click the thumbnail below, which I heartily recommend. Dawn of Discovery is definitely a game that looks better fullscreen.

Tomorrow: heavy industry
