Towns brings a fresh new take on the citybuilding/management genre by introducing many RPG features.

Drawing inspiration from games such as Diablo, Dungeon Keeper and Dwarf Fortress, the game has you managing a settlement on top of an active dungeon.  Instead of playing the hero who delves deep into the dungeon, how about playing the town that houses and caters to the hero's needs?

Both the RPG and strategic aspects will be fleshed out over a series of sprawling dungeons.

Craft unique weapons, obtain randomized loot and build a settlement capable of holding back the forces that come up from the depths!

Hello dear men and women,

We are proud to announce the release of Towns v13!

In this build have We added a server support for the buried towns, so now you will be able to download buried towns from other players automatically or from a default server. You no longer need to go out and search for them, they shall come to you.

We have also added items where you can write custom texts on, those carved and written texts will remain when the town is buried, so its possible to send messages through time to other players.

Think of them is kind of like a message in a bottle.
 
Since v13 sieges now have a chance to appear from underground, so defend accordingly!

Heroes can now make friendships and form parties with other heroes based on their moral. Heroes on the same party will explore together and rush to each other's aid.

Heroes partying

We have changed how happiness is calculated in according to idle and work time, so now townies get unhappy if they are unemployed or overworked. Maintain a balance between your townies work and fun times.

There is now an option to reincar
nate unique dead heroes. It is a complicated spell so follow its instructions carefully!

Other than those, there are many more additions, fixes and performance improvements, you can check them all here.

Please, visit our forums andd dont be shy if you have any suggestion or criticism.

So long and may Nux be with you!

A fantastic concept. A good way to kill some time, even though I know I'm getting nothing for it in the end. :(

That´s it, really?
Do you really think this game is finished and was ready for release?
No more updates?
You are joking, right?
Where are the devs? They took the money and run?

Seriously do a bit more research before attacking the devs. It's a pretty well known fact that the game is still a sort of alpha/beta stage and if you even bothered to look on the official forum you'd know that they are clearly not gone and they actually have plans to release an update in January.

Practice what you preach. The concern expressed by jellobriafra is so widespread that the devs have responded to it: Townsgame.com

Maybe the devs are busy with personal issues or doing something else with another update.

I love this game! but just as there are groups to the soldiers maybe have groups of citizens? it would be helpful because then one can assign groups of citizens to cut wood and another to just cook... or maybe assign jobs to them such as a medic for the hospital and a barkeep for the tavern or even a designer for the Atelier.... because they are just empty rooms... and im still unsure wether the townies go into the hospital when they are injured... ehm... also Ive spawned in a world where Lava was slowly flowing toward my townies.. and in another where Froggies ran rampant and killed all my townies before a week passed... the world generator needs to be smarter... ehm... I cant think of anything else at the moment, but this game is like Minecraft meets Age of Empires meets Sim... ehm... maybe allow the townies to breed? its terribly hard to play the game when four people died because they tried to kill froggies even though they werent soldiers... I now have only 7 people... also maybe have a tut on happiness... plz n ty :D Love this game!!!

It is a game with great potential. The gameplay is like DF Lite (If it existed), which is not coincidental because the developers said they had Toady's masterwork in mind while working on this game. An important difference between Towns and DF is that Towns has an interface more attuned to the human eyes. That's right, wanna mine that wall? Click, drag, click, orders are now set! Now watch the Townsfolk perform hard labor! (Note: Press Ctrl to toggle wall visibility. It makes tracking your village's…

This game needs a lot of work, especially the sound and music. There is some great music on the net that you can license for cheap I would really recommend you take a look at those. The game could use some ambient sounds and all the other sound effects..especially the deaths.
