Townsmen VR

Townsmen VR is a medieval village-building game that combines city-building and god-game simulation with interactive virtual reality controls. You begin with a small settlement and grow it across a world of 13 islands and archipelagos. You can view the action from above or zoom in, and scale yourself to see your town at the height of its townspeople.

Build your village

Build and upgrade more than 20 types of buildings, assign jobs and tasks to villagers, and develop production chains to supply your growing population with food and goods. Farms produce grain that can be milled into flour and baked into bread. You can help citizens gather about 20 kinds of raw materials, carry workers or resources to speed up construction and production, and research building upgrades. Place buildings freely to improve transport routes, and build a harbor to receive a trader’s ship and accumulate riches.

You can also interact directly with the world: push the wings of a windmill when the wind is calm, brush over trees, shape clouds into thunderstorms, fish with your bare hands and talk to your townspeople.

Life and conflict

Cows, sheep and chickens provide resources for food production, while hunters stalk rabbits and deer. Wolves and bears pose a danger, seagulls steal your catch, and crows gather above battlefields as eagles fly overhead.

Recruit different types of soldiers to defend your realm from intruders and enemy forces. Catapults can break gaps in enemy ranks, and you can use anything you can pick up as ammunition if you run out of boulders. Some islands also have pirates who want your resources. You can build catapults, bows and crossbows to protect your island from the Black Knight’s raiding henchmen.

Campaign and sandbox

The fully voiced campaign follows a story across 13 islands and includes quests. Most campaign islands can also be unlocked for unrestricted play in sandbox mode, where you set the starting number of townspeople and choose your own conditions and challenges. You can play without constraints, set tasks for yourself, defeat opponents or face thieving pirates. Sir Clunk-a-lot, your personal advisor, offers tips during a virtual tour of the medieval age.
