After delivering hits like Teeny Tiny Town, Teeny Tiny Trains, Luminosus, and Tiny Connections, Short Circuit Studios has launched a unique game this time: TownsFolk, a roguelike strategy city-builder that combines exploration, construction, and survival into an exciting gameplay experience.
Explore, Build, and Survive in TownsFolk
In TownsFolk, you take the helm as the leader of a group of settlers venturing into the wilderness to establish a thriving colony. Your challenge is not only to build but also to ensure that you don't incur the wrath of the Crown by missing tributes. This game truly tests your leadership and adaptability skills.
As the overseer, you'll manage essential resources such as food, gold, faith, and production to maintain your settlement's smooth operation. However, your plans can be disrupted by wild animals, natural disasters, and moral dilemmas. Strategic planning is crucial, as the Crown expects its tributes on time, or else your entire settlement might face severe consequences.

It's Minimal but Fun!
TownsFolk keeps every playthrough exciting with its roguelike campaign, constantly introducing new challenges. The game offers various modes to cater to different play styles.
Skirmish Mode allows you to engage in quick strategic battles without the commitment of a full run. It also features clever puzzle challenges, enabling you to customize your gameplay and test your strategies in diverse settings.
On the other hand, Campaign Mode offers a thrilling journey filled with dynamic missions and challenges. TownsFolk masterfully blends minimalist strategy with depth, ensuring an engaging experience.
The game's retro-style pixelated visuals add to its charm, a testament to Short Circuit Studios' expertise in this area. If you're a fan of colony-building strategy games, you can find TownsFolk on the Google Play Store.
