"Townsfolk: Retro Roguelike Strategy for Conquering New Lands"

The folks at Short Circuit Studios have carved a niche with their charming releases like Teeny Tiny Trains, Teeny Tiny Town, and Tiny Connections. However, they're steering into uncharted territory with their upcoming dark and grim roguelike strategy game, Townsfolk, set to launch on April 3rd.

In Townsfolk, you take on the role of a leader tasked with colonizing new lands under the mandate of the Crown. Your mission is clear: ensure the survival and prosperity of your people while managing vital resources such as Food, Gold, Faith, and Production, all of which must remain in the green.

Navigating the challenges of this untamed land won't be easy. You'll face wild animals, unpredictable disasters, and tough moral decisions, all while ensuring you don't forget to pay your tithes to the Crown.

HexcrawlTownsfolk marks a significant shift for Short Circuit Studios, moving away from their previously quaint and twee offerings. The game adopts a darker aesthetic and introduces a steeper difficulty curve, fitting perfectly within the roguelike sub-genre. Expect to encounter failure and learn from it as you progress.

Townsfolk offers diverse gameplay modes to keep you engaged. Dive into the Roguelite Campaign, test your skills in Skirmish Mode with various challenges, or tackle the Puzzle Challenges that promise to stretch your strategic thinking to its limits.
