Townscaper

Raw Fury

About this game

Build quaint island towns with curvy streets. Build small hamlets, soaring cathedrals, canal networks, or sky cities on stilts. Block by block.

No goal. No real gameplay. Just plenty of building and plenty of beauty. That's it.

Townscaper is an experimental passion project. More of a toy than a game. Pick colors from the palette, plop down colored blocks of house on the irregular grid, and watch Townscaper's underlying algorithm automatically turn those blocks into cute little houses, arches, stairways, bridges and lush backyards, depending on their configuration.

Ratings and reviews

A few annoying bugs that detract from an enjoyable experience. Settings are not saved on exit. Colour change does not work! Despite sound settings at zero, incredibly instrusive startup sound remains!!! How on earth do you turn it off? Seems to be abandoned for nearly a year with issues remaining! Waste of money. Clearly developer has no interest in fixing issues for people who supported the app.

Wonderful and therapeutic game. The tapping to build is so nice. The sky bridges and tower shapes are really nice! But you are so limited by the grid. I hate the random shapped areas. I wish there was a way to change the type of grid to be square, round, random. I also wish there was different material types. Like stone, wood, glass for the buildings and Sand, grass, stone, and brick for the floors. Adding little people would make it feel less lonely. 4 stars for being amazing!

The artwork is beautiful and the simplicity of just tapping and building is wonderful. That being said, you are so incredibly limited. You can only use so much of the grid and you can only build so much on your given grid section. Things that would make this game a 5 star game: unlimited building blocks, unlimited grid, selectable grid type (round, square, randomized (the current default)), and a way to see your creation in first person view would be amazing as well.
