SteamWorld Build, in classic SteamWorld form, adds a new twist to the genre by returning to the franchise’s origins and bringing a tower defence layer to the game’s underworld. Players will progressively advance underground, finding new resource nodes while creating a slew of fortifications in case hordes of attackers come to sabotage their mining operations. The dark and stressful underworld contrasts well with the colourful, serene, low-pressure overworld city development, making it almost feel like two games in one. Players will have access to certain defensive troops and buildings, and mastering tower defence classics like as chokepoints and mazes will be critical to success.
A free trial is now available for gamers who wish to test out Steamworld Build ahead of its full release; however, players should be aware that the demo presently lacks gamepad functionality, which will be included with the game’s full release. Meanwhile, the Steam Base Builder Fest is still going on, offering discounts on a variety of titles with similar features.
