The original Goblin Camp was an ASCII freeware game first published in 2010, and it’s now been re-imagined in full 3D glory by a team led by the original developer. Its roguelike heritage shows in the use of procedural generation to simulate a glacial landscape, and a dynamically growing forest that responds to your actions. Other technical highlights include advanced water and fire simulations, and centralized manager interfaces that make it easy to scale gameplay from a tiny village to a bustling city. These manager interfaces, combined with far-reaching goblin autonomy, free the player from micromanaging the camp and let them concentrate on developing their growing civilization.
