Defending from attacking horrors in Cataclismo

We’ve known aboutMoonlighterdevs' upcomingRTStower defence hybridCataclismofor alittle while now. But now we know a couplemorethings. It’s set to release in Q2 of this year, and there’s a demo on Steam right now if you’d like to give it a try. Expect to make nice fortresses out of Lego-style bricks, then defend them from hordes of horrors. I’d say that’s a recipe for a good time.

The good news is that it’ll arrive sometime in Q2 of this year, so roughly between April and June. That’s not too far away! And the extra good news is that you’re able to play a demo of the game right now onSteam.

I do love myself a horde mode, but I’ve never been a massive RTS-er. Cataclismo genuinely looks like a nice way to bridge the gap, perhaps moreso thanThey Are Billions, which didn’t really have the right vibe to entice me in. I like the vibe of Cataclismo, which for whatever reason, reminds me a bit of action RPGAshen.
