River Towns Now Available On Steam | popgeeks.com
Combine Tetris with SimCity and you’d get something like River Towns, the new puzzle game out today from Stray Fawn Publishing and Metaroot.
Your task: build cities along rivers. The challenge: you can only build them one chunk at a time, by placing colored shapes on a map. The shapes have to fit together, and you must place your cities in color-coded “districts.” Any mistakes will be deducted from your overall score. Each district has its own style and shapes, so there is no one-size-fits-all strategy for town-building. There’s no time limit, and the lute music can be relaxing, but you’ve got your work cut out for you…
Once you build up your town, you can zoom into it and observe your citizens going about their day — if anything looks especially interesting, you can go into Photo Mode to take pictures. And once your whole town is built you’ll be given a cumulative score, at which point you move on to the next development…
- Piece together beautiful towns along the river
- Earn points in various ways
- Enjoy many unique levels with ever-changing mechanics
- Restore nature and rebuild the monuments of the old, broken world
- Share your towns with photo mode
- Compare your score with your friends
River Towns is now available on Steam, at a launch sale price of $13.49 — after a week or so the game will revert to its intended price of 14.99.
