Short Circuit Studio has announced an exciting update for their recently launched settlement builder game, TownsFolk. This major content update, aptly titled “Shadows and Fortune,” introduces a host of new mechanics, structures, and a comprehensive compendium, all designed to enhance your gameplay experience. One of the notable features of this update is the introduction of roaming Barbarians, which will heighten the tension during both campaign missions and Skirmish mode.
Players can expect to encounter various challenges as they navigate through the game. Additionally, eight new structures have been added, including the Altar, Town Square, Blacksmith, Aqueduct, Bank, Granary, Factory, and Terraformer. These new buildings not only provide functionality but also add depth to your settlement strategies.
The update also breathes new life into the water tiles with the addition of a rare Whale. Special Locations, such as ancient Obelisks and Shipwrecks, further enhance the game’s unpredictability and exploration elements. For players who may feel overwhelmed by the new content, the newly introduced Compendium serves as an informative guide to help keep track of the various aspects of the game.
Moreover, the Exploration System has seen a revamp, allowing players to adjust Campaign Difficulties between Frontier and Survival modes, catering to different playstyles. If you’re interested in experiencing these new features, TownsFolk is available as a free-to-play game on both the App Store and Google Play, with in-app purchases. Keep an eye out for community updates and developments to stay engaged with the game and its evolving world.
