Developer RodentGames is pleased to announce that its resource management and colony sim title Artificer’s Tower is currently in development and headed for full release next year. To encourage mage’s to start prepping their towers now, the developer has officially launched the demo on Steam. Players that jump into the game will be able to start building up their tower, growing their collective of mages and fending off the game’s first boss.
Artificer’s Tower tasks budding mage’s with becoming masters of the magical arts. Taking inspiration from titles like Fallout Shelter, Artificer’s Tower combines elements of both resource management and colony sim genres as well as tower defense. Build a variety of unique rooms to form wildly-shaped wizard towers while welcoming in new mages, each with their own strengths and weaknesses. Create barracks for your mages to sleep in, classrooms to teach them spells, trap rooms for fending off enemies and much more.
Players just starting out will have a series of crafting recipes to help them with their quests. Have mages craft items and equip themselves with only the best robes and wands. After getting the tower’s inhabitants decked out appropriately, use resources to expand your tower, prepare for incoming enemies, and gain more power the more you accomplish.
There’s more to life than simply learning spells and fighting off goblins for mages. Players will need to keep their mages happy in order to make their tower truly thrive. Pay them proper wages, keep them entertained, and fulfill all their needs. Players will be able to watch as their tower becomes the talk of the wizarding community!
