• Dynamic roguelite strategy with unexpected challenges
• Ensure your settlers thrive and stay content
• Meet the Crown’s demands or face consequences

Short Circuit Studio’s colony builder TownsFolk has launched, diving into darker themes compared to their typical mobile titles. The visuals retain a soft, almost mystical charm, but the atmosphere is grimmer, shrouded in fog that hints at hidden secrets waiting to be uncovered.

As the leader of a fledgling settlement on the world’s edge, you’ll battle brutal weather, famine, and deadly plagues to keep your townsfolk alive and content. Beyond these struggles, the Crown’s escalating demands add pressure to your role in this ever-changing, vibrant world, where adaptation is key to survival.

Each playthrough offers a unique story, blending ancient mysteries with unpredictable events. Tough decisions—tackling natural disasters and paying tributes—will test your leadership to ensure your settlement endures.
