While one species might be okay working long shifts, another would rather focus on increasing the population – so choose what fits your playstyle. Unlock additional beaver families, each with unique style and traits. Balanced diet, decorations, temples, even carousels – you take care of it all.
However, players will need to manage water levels to not doom their cities in a flood. Players will need to carefully create them to control the flow of water, breathing life into their cities. One of the central structures in preserving your beaver cities in Timberborn is a Dam. An evolved beaver's lifestyle is not just "work, sleep and chomp on wood". Dams will be central to the player's beavers. Satisfy the needs of your colonists to extend their lifespan and make them happier. Follow the lives of individually simulated inhabitants throughout their day and celebrate when the next generation is born!
The map editor will also be available in the full version only. The demo can only be played on two maps and your goal is to survive… long enough. “We’ve just implemented dry seasons, and after looking at the current game industry’s standards, we realized removing water from a beaver game was the best worst thing we could do”, he says. “We were wondering what we can cut from the demo so that players still want to pay us for the full game afterwards”, muses Bartlomiej Dawidow, Timberborn’s lead designer. Play on one of the included maps or create your own and share it with the community! With hills of different heights, ruins scattered in the desert, and all life depending on access to water, each map poses a different challenge.and more!Ever since the project started, we have been improving the game and adding new features based on community feedback.Mechanistry has released a playable demo on Steam where it will remain until February 16, 2021. Satisfy the needs of your rodents with a balanced diet, decorations, monuments, and more – on top of keeping the colony alive.

Vertical architectureĬreate a thriving beaver settlement using a vertical architecture system. To find it, send your scavengers to the ruins of the old world.
