Publisher tinyBuild and developer All Parts Connected have announced ALL WILL FALL, a post-apocalyptic city builder due out for PC via Steam in 2025. A playtest is available now until January 31.
“With ALL WILL FALL, we set out to create a unique mix of physics, simulation, and management mechanics for city builder and strategy fans,” developer Dominykas Kiauleikis and Danas Matusevicius said in a joint statement. “We want the game to be accessible yet deep, allowing you to tinker with its many systems and ‘smash some toys together.’ Being a Lithuanian studio, we are also excited to bring a spotlight on our local game development scene. On behalf of our small yet passionate team, we hope you put ALL WILL FALL on your city builder radar!”
Here is an overview of the game, via tinyBuild:
About
A post-apocalyptic city builder where every structure can collapse. Master a unique physics-based 3D construction system, create a sprawling vertical settlement on water, scavenge for resources, explore the ocean, and ensure the survival of your colony by making difficult yet necessary decisions.
Key Features
- Design and Build a Towering Ocean City – The world is dying, overtaken by the endless ocean. You are the leader of a small group of survivors stranded on a rusty boat. You find a small land area, solid enough to serve as a building foundation. And now, step by step, you build a city. This city will go up to the sky, weather many storms, and become a home for the last remnants of humanity. For your people.
- Master Physics-Based 3D Construction System – The game’s physics-based building mechanic challenges you to consider real-world construction aspects when building your intricate multi-level city in all three dimensions. While easy to grasp, this unique system introduces deeper simulation aspects and more creative freedom to the city-building sandbox, allowing you to bring numerous vertical city design ideas to life.
- Every Building Can Collapse – While building, you’re essentially playing Jenga with human lives at stake. Each structure can crumble, so you must provide enough support and find creative ways of using different building materials. There is a high-risk, high-reward aspect to it, though. For example, you can find various ways to reach much-needed resource nodes by building elaborate bridges or ladders. Or—save some space for more production by stacking the housing quarters on top of each other. If you fail, the state of the building can be reverted to before the collapse, so you can fix the mistakes and avoid tragic consequences – at least on lower difficulties!
- Manage a Bustling Colony of Survivors – Besides building and maintaining the city, you will also manage a colony of survivors. As their leader, navigate the wants and needs of several factions—Engineers, Sailors, and Workers—each with its own unique traits. For example, only Engineers can operate cranes, while Sailors have access to boat navigation, making resource gathering and logistics easier.
- Make Difficult Yet Necessary Decisions – Sometimes, you will have to make difficult yet necessary decisions to lead your people to prosperity. Try to feed every mouth generously, or be strict with food rationing. Establish martial law during the unrest, or show mercy and let people voice their frustrations. Go down in history as a benevolent shepherd or strong-hand tyrant—as long as the city prevails.
- Experience New Challenges Every Time – Each colony you build will deal with unique challenges, foundation layouts, circumstances and random events—like storms, mysterious structures emerging from the ocean, political coups, unexpected newcomers, food shortages, and more. Learn from your mistakes, unlock new locations on the global map, and embark on the next dangerous adventure once the inevitable calamity comes to destroy the city.
