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

Author : Daniel Mar 22,2025

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 roguelike strategy game, Townsfolk, launching April 3rd. This departure sees players leading a Crown-sponsored expedition to colonize new lands. Your primary objective: ensure the survival and prosperity of your populace, carefully managing resources like Food, Gold, Faith, and Production to keep them thriving.

However, this untamed land presents numerous challenges. Wild animals, unpredictable disasters, and difficult moral choices threaten your colony's stability. Don't forget—timely tithes to the Crown are crucial for maintaining favor.

Townsfolk represents a significant shift for Short Circuit Studios. Trading their previously quaint aesthetic for a darker, more challenging experience, this roguelike city-builder demands strategic thinking and resilience in the face of repeated failures.

The game offers diverse gameplay modes: a challenging Roguelite Campaign, a Skirmish Mode for testing your skills, and Puzzle Challenges that will truly test your strategic mettle.
