Townsfolk is a retro roguelike strategy where you conquer new lands for the Crown

Short Circuit Studios, known for charming titles like Teeny Tiny Trains, Teeny Tiny Town, and Tiny Connections, is venturing into darker territory with their upcoming release, Townsfolk. This roguelike strategy city-builder, arriving April 3rd, marks a significant departure from their previous, more whimsical style.

In Townsfolk, you lead a colonial expedition, tasked by the Crown with establishing and expanding a thriving settlement. Success hinges on maintaining a balance of Food, Gold, Faith, and Production—all vital for your colony's survival and growth. But the untamed wilderness presents numerous challenges. Wild animals, unpredictable disasters, and tough moral choices will constantly test your leadership. And don't forget—paying your tithes to the Crown is non-negotiable!

Townsfolk offers a stark contrast to Short Circuit Studios' previous work. Its dark aesthetic and challenging gameplay, firmly rooted in the roguelike genre, demand strategic thinking and resilience in the face of repeated failures. The game includes multiple modes: a Roguelite Campaign, a Skirmish Mode for testing your skills, and Puzzle Challenges for truly mind-bending scenarios.
