Billing itself as “ Banished meets Slay the Spire,” Against the Storm requires you to constantly rebuild and expand in order to win as the titular storm reshapes the world.īeavers figure prominently in Against the Storm, but they are joined by Lizardfolk and Humans to help populate and improve your settlements. Set on a fantasy world where it never stops raining, Against the Storm is a city-builder with roguelite elements where each city you build faces different challenges that must be met in order to become self-reliant enough to fulfill the primary objective of the game, rebuilding the Smouldering City. This has not stopped it from becoming a top seller, so if you want to start building with beavers it is available on both the Steam platform and from the Epic Games Store.Īgainst the Storm is also a city-builder, but it goes in an entirely different direction from Timberborn.
TIMBERBORN BEAVERS FULL
Timberborn is currently in early access, so many features are not yet implemented - the developer Mechanistry does not expect the full game to be available until late 2022 at the earliest. The game also allows vertical building, which makes perfect sense in a world where sustainability does not mean constant expansion across the landscape. The game gives you plenty of opportunities to use beaver ingenuity to survive, not just dam-building - salvage metal from the remains of human civilization to assist in your building efforts, or even use bombs to terraform to your colony’s benefit. Unlike more standard city-builders, Timberborn leans hard into its survival elements if you’re not able to effectively control the water supply while also preparing for droughts, your colony will not survive against the onslaughts of nature or other beaver factions.
This “lumberpunk” city-builder gives you a choice of two factions, one more nature-oriented and one that is perfectly fine recreating the industrial revolution to survive. Timberborn is set in a post-human future where beavers are trying to salvage what remains in order to build their own societies. Here are some of the games we’re excited to play which give beavers the spotlight they’ve long deserved. Since the most noteworthy feature of the humble beaver is its dam-building, it’s not much of a surprise that these are all games with a heavy construction focus. This isn’t surprising in itself, because the beaver is considered emblematic of both the United States and Canada, but what does make it noteworthy is that it comes amidst a flurry of other games where playing as a beaver is a central component to the experience. On Thursday Planet Zoo announced that their latest expansion pack featuring North American animals will be arriving on October 4th, and front and center in the announcement was the beaver.
