Short Circuit Studio has taken a thrilling leap into darker territory with the official launch of their new roguelite strategy game, TownsFolk. While the game retains the studio's signature soft, ethereal visual style, it's now infused with a grittier, foggier atmosphere that hints at deeper mysteries lurking beyond the mist.
In TownsFolk, you step into the role of a leader tasked with managing a fledgling settlement on the world's edge. Your primary mission? Ensuring the survival and happiness of your townsfolk amidst harsh weather, famine, and toxic plagues. But it's not just about keeping your people alive and content; you must also navigate the ever-increasing demands of the Crown. This dynamic, living world constantly evolves, requiring you to adapt swiftly to survive.
Each playthrough of TownsFolk offers a unique narrative, thanks to the unpredictable events and ancient mysteries waiting to be unraveled. You'll face tough decisions on everything from paying tributes to surviving natural disasters, ensuring that no two games are ever the same.
