Haha it can definitely be challenging at the higher difficulty levels but I probably made it sound a bit more hectic than it is.

It’s pausable at all times so you can always work at whatever pace you want.

The pacing balance that I mentioned is more around having to make the right decisions. I.e. choosing when is the right moment to explore deeper into the forest for more resources. Choosing when to take on more citizens. That sort of thing.
