Beta 20 contains a number of tweaks, bug fixes and new features. I'm still catching up with launch issues, so there is no major new content just yet. But you can expect to see more updates with more content within the next few weeks. Features/Changes: - Adds ability to assign sapiens to beds, by clicking a sapien, selecting move, and then clicking on a bed - Adds a difficulty guide when selecting your tribe - When knapping a large rock into small rocks, you can now also use another large rock as the tool - Sapiens can now sit on split logs - Move & Wait has been removed from the radial menu, as it was a trap for new players. This functionality will likely be added again soon using a modifier key instead - Reduces frequency and volume of bird sounds - Bamboo now only drops 2 when gathering, saving 2 for when it is chopped down - Adds option to invert the mouse wheel zoom direction - Adds a total time played in game days to the world load menu - More fonts and characters added for localization mods, especially Japanese and Turkish - You can now add, remove, and update world mods for existing worlds - Mod lists are now scrolling views, to allow more installed mods - Exposes more variables for mods - Adds buttons to open the world save directory, and mod directories Bug Fixes: - Fixes issues where they would get stuck far away, and not return home in time to get to sleep - Fixes crashing bugs - Fixes an issue where you could get stuck unable to build a kiln due to a research order on stored mudbricks - Fixes pathfinding issue that could cause them to run very slowly over long distances - Fixes AI issues relating to choosing where to store items - Fixes AI issues where two sapiens would attempt to sit on the same seat, or seats became unusable - Fixes issue where it displayed the incorrect craft count for split logs, small rocks - Fixes issue where digging discovery was assignable before you had discovered rock knapping - Now warns if Steam overlay is not enabled, if you do something that requires it

In Sapiens you create your own prehistoric civilization. Lead your tribe from the ground, immersed in the world while you shape it. Build towns and industry with complete freedom and control, from placing the tiniest pebble to constructing monumental structures. Start with nothing and advance through thousands of years of technological breakthroughs in this intimate yet expansive colony sim.
Choose Your Home
Pick from thousands of procedurally generated lands across a map larger than Earth itself. Choose wisely, as each area has different climates, resources, and challenges. Finding the right place to begin your home is key to growing your civilisation.
Lead Your People
Walk the paths beside your people as you lead them through this uncharted world. Instruct individual sapiens to focus on specific tasks, such as planting crops, gathering materials, building, hunting, cooking, and more. Watch as they learn new skills, making them more valuable to your tribe. Manage their moods, health, and support their growing families.
Find Resources
Find new resources and send your sapiens to investigate, leading to new breakthroughs which unlock new things to build and craft. Start with primitive materials and work your way up to using more advanced tools and techniques.
Build A Civilization
Build shelters, both to keep your sapiens happy and to preserve food and resources. Every wall, roof, seat or fireplace can be placed individually. Each tree, log, plank or rock can be removed or situated, and the terrain can be dug, mined or filled to shape the world the way you want.
Expand Your Reach
Send sapiens over long distances and establish camps to gather far away resources. Create transportation networks to bring those resources back to your base for processing or storage. Send a group to explore over great distances, or conduct a hunting mission. Take down a mammoth to feed and clothe your tribe for months, but know that you may lose some sapiens trying.
Sapiens features extensive mod support through Steam Workshop.
