You are the Elder. You had a vision of a doomed future, so you took a handful of Pips, your fellow villagers, and led them to an empty valley to start anew. They need your guidance to survive the events foretold by the Prophecy, so make sure your Pips work hard!
TURN-BASED VILLAGE BUILDER
DotAGE has deep worker placement mechanics inspired by board games. Build your village and assign your workers to their daily tasks, grow crops, herd animals, bury corpses, forge tools, upgrade buildings, train professionals, and produce dozens of resources. Take your time and think carefully before passing the turn!
ROGUELIKE SURVIVAL
The memories of the Elder are unclear, so each run will be different, with new buildings to discover. Play with more than 200 buildings, 30 professions, and 70 resources. As you play, the memories of the Elder will come back, unlocking new game mechanics and content, such as new ailments, the mysterious VIPs, and new Elders! Each turn, the Domains, the forces that govern the world, will unleash increasingly powerful events on your village. From poison, to disease, to earthquakes, to kittens. Will you be able to survive them all and find out what is causing the apocalypse?
PICK YOUR POISON
In addition to each run being different, the game has multiple difficulty levels, so pick the one that suits your playstyle. Enjoy a relaxed turn-based town builder with its cozy graphics, or prove your mastery of the prophecy with the increasingly difficult mastery levels!
MADE WITH LOVE
This game is a love letter to the games of my childhood, made with passion in 9 years in the little spare time I got by a single developer from Italy. The music of the game is real medieval music, taken from the Montpellier Codex, rearranged by Luigi di Guida. I hope you enjoy the world of Dotage!
