Cataclismo is a mix of real-time strategy and tower defense from the creators of Moonlighter. Defend the last bastion of humanity in a ruined world, building fortresses brick by brick to fend off waves of Horrors. Design fortresses, optimize production in the citadel, train and deploy a wide range of troops, and make impactful tactical choices. Withstand the siege and rise above the haze in a story of hope, resilience, and community.
Architect by day, commander by night: you’ll need to gather up resources and use LEGO-inspired mechanics to build your stronghold with tactical layouts, weather, traps, and troop placement in mind. When night falls, the hoards will arrive to try and tear everything down. With a realistic physics system, falling bricks will crush enemies and allies alike!
It is busy within the walls. Your citadel will get more efficient as you build specific key buildings and reach new prosperity levels. With each new update, new constructions, stronger soldiers, and destructive siege equipment will be unlocked, not least fire arrows to turn horrors into ashes. The higher the prosperity, the easier you will endure the siege.
Skillfully command a wide range of soldiers, maneuvering them into precise tactical positions that best suit their role - even the height of their position matters, every meter counts! Deploy skillful bowmen, explosive cannoneers, or bulky lobbers, each with unique skills that will automatically activate during a siege, and build traps to foil the enemy.
The Cataclismo left the world devastated. But... what if we could rebuild? Throughout a 30-hour single-player campaign complete with VA and cutscenes, you will gradually learn and master all the game mechanics while joining Lady Iris in a story of hope and home.
Alongside the single-player campaign, Cataclismo features a myriad of modes. Face increasingly challenging, endless waves of horrors in Survival Mode; build without limitations nor the fear of monsters destroying your ideations in Creative Mode, and overcome a selection of hand-crafted, cleverly designed maps in Skirmish Mode.
Cataclismo is Digital Sun's first self-published title, having previously developed the hit action RPG Moonlighter (which has sold over 2 million copies) and the critically acclaimed League of Legends spinoff The Mageseeker. Cataclismo not only represents a step forward in terms of scope and innovation but also brings them closer to realizing their dream as a leading indie studio.
“At Digital Sun, we come from humble beginnings, doing games for other people,” said Digital Sun CEO Javi Giménez. “We've always looked up to studios like Supergiant and Klei that feel truly independent. We've dreamt of being able to publish our own games and talk directly to our players and self-publishing. Cataclismo is the next step in realizing that dream."
