About
Towers of Aghasba tells the story of the Shimu people, forced to flee their homeland when a mysterious force, known as the Withered, ravaged the land. As junior architect, it’s your job to rebuild the villages of your once-mighty civilization and nurture Aghasba’s ecosystems back to life. Core gameplay lets you traverse the wide world of Aghasba— scaling colossal mountains, gliding across jaw-dropping vistas, and befriending majestic creatures. Craft weapons, armors, and elixirs to aid in battle against monsters afflicting the land with rot, cultivate outlandish flora and fauna as you restore ecosystems, and uncover ancient knowledge hidden among ruins. Back at homebase, flex your creativity by designing a bustling civilization and customizing your island home with decorations. Once your villages and ecosystems are in place, invite up to three friends to explore your island, trade items, hunt creatures, and battle the Withered as a team.
Key Features
- Explore the Island of Aghasba – Traverse varied terrain, scale colossal mountains and gaze out upon jaw-dropping vistas, all brought to life in a vibrant, high-fidelity art style. Befriend strange and memorable creatures, learn the storied history of the Shimu people and uncover the dark origins of the Withered.
- Rebuild the Shimu Civilization – Build sprawling settlements and watch them come alive as they’re inhabited by members of the Shimu tribe. Lose yourself in a rich creative sandbox as you decorate and construct your villages in a way that’s uniquely you.
- Restore Aghasba’s Ecosystems – Restore life to a devastated land by nurturing the growth of beautifully bizarre ecosystems. Grow plant life, attract & feed animals, and work with the gods of Aghasba to revitalize the island.
- Brave the Withered Lands – Much of Aghasba is still infested with the Withered, a dark force that absorbs the life from all it touches. Craft weapons, armor and elixirs before venturing into the Withered Lands and battle bloodthirsty Withered monsters, gradually ridding the island of the Withered plague.
- Invite Friends to Your Island – Once you build your villages and grow your ecosystems how you want, it’s time to show them off! Invite up to 3 friends to explore your island, trade items, hunt creatures and battle the Withered as a team.
