Is it still worth playing?

11 bit studios' 2018 city building and survival game for Windows, set during a volcanic winter in an alternate late 19th century. You lead New London around a central coal fired generator that heats a circular radius. Everything else is a resource to manage: coal, wood, steel and food run out on the map, while Hope and Discontent meters decide whether people revolt or leave. Laws, about one a day, trade productivity for discontent, and emergency 24 hour shifts cost morale. The cold keeps pressing, since coal need rises as the temperature falls, so you watch the forecast, and the generator can shut down or explode. With one heat source at the centre, every layout and law is still a trade between warmth, resources and morale today.
