- Oct 15, 2019 The game was released into Steam Early Access on 27 October 2014. Gameplay Rise to Ruins Free Download is a city-building strategy game with pixelated design, survival and god game elements, and influences from the video games Towns, Gnomoria, Warcraft, Banished, and Dwarf Fortress.
- A regularly updated, brutal godlike village sim that melds the god game, management, and tower defense genres! Fight off hoards of monsters at night, and expand your village in the day time. Inspired by games like Black and White, Rimworld, and Dwarf Fortress but not quite like any of them.
Rise to Ruins is at heart a godlike village simulator, but it also throws in plenty of familiar game play mechanics from classic 90s era real-time strategy games like Settlers, along with some tower defense and survival elements in an attempt to create a new kind of village simulator. The goal is to try to bridge the gap between the depth and complexity of traditional village simulators, the fun of godlikes and the simplicity of real-time strategy.

Hi, Just tried the new update, and im pretty confused about the new growth time for food. I know that food sustain villagers longer, but currently i can't figure the good balance to survive summer. I build 2 giant farm day 1, put 8 farmers on them (the max), when summer arrive, im barely at 35 food in storage, not enough to survive through the hot summer. Should i go for more farm during.
Build a village, and die trying!
A major part of the game is village management, and trying to discover new and creative ways to use the tools at your disposal to keep yourself alive as long as possible. In this game, you will lose frequently, but with every failure you learn a little bit more about how to survive and apply that knowledge to your next attempt.
Several Game Modes
Currently, the game offers three game modes. Survival, Sandbox and Peaceful.
Survival is the game the way it was meant to be played, as a brutal survival style village sim, you will probably die often trying to figure out the best way to survive, but that's half the fun right?!
Peaceful is very similar to Survival, but it's balanced much like a traditional village simulator with some godlike and RTS elements sprinkled on top. The monster spawn rates are much lower, and the main focus is keeping your village happy and fed. It's a very easy mode, designed for casual players, or players just wanting to experiment.
Sandbox, like the name implies, is a mode where you can play around with the game mechanics. Change the time of day, weather, spawn monsters or villagers, or even edit the map while you're playing on it. This is the ultimate 'Screw around' mode for players wanting to play with the game mechanics.
Godlike Elements
Not only can you manage your village, but you also have many godlike abilities at your disposal. You can alter the terrain, blast enemies from afar, pick up objects or creatures, heal your villagers, speed up resource growth and all sorts of other fun godly stuff.
Tons of map set themes!
Every set of maps will follow a certain theme (Forest, Desert, Underground, etc). Most of the current screenshots only feature a few of these map sets. But many more are planned.
The Soundtrack!
A full original soundtrack, made by Bibiki Garcia that blends orchestral instruments in a way fans of old 1990s era PC gaming will love and remember!

Hi there.
The official website link in the description seems wrong.
First off it unnecessarily redirects via Steam, then it redirects to a seemingly unrelated site (with self-signed cert). Please fix.
Nice game, I got it during the Halloween sale and played it for a couple of hours yesterday. I think it is mostly held back by the UI, which I find to be convoluted, overloaded and taking up far too much screen estate. I encountered a bunch of other issues and it's often hard to tell whether it's a bug or I just couldn't figure out how to do it. Builders insisted to repair all damaged buildings rather than building a new one that might have saved the colony. Builders sometimes didn't harvest nor get the stone required to build for unknown reasons. I can't figure out how to build new log roads, but the road builder happily repairs pre-exisitng ones. Manual install on Linux is a bit cumbersome since multiple files need to be marked executable first (at least start script and jre).
My first colony, on standard, didn't go well. First people died of heat (in the spring), then someone died of dehydration, then they died of starvation and the last remaining survivors got eaten by Zombies. Afterwards I could not continue playing because apparently for that you need migrants, so I had to reset the map. I was surprised that the world didn't get re-generated, it is exactly the same, only without my failed colony. Maybe peaceful mode is better for first time players.

Rise To Ruins Small Games
Hi! I bought the Big Back for Meeple Station that was supposed to come with a Steam key for this, but I did not receive a key. How do I access the key? Thank you!
Hmm? Rise to Ruins has no affiliation with Meeple Station. Where did you see that? :)
Oops. It was 'Regions of Ruin.' Thanks, though. Sorry about that. :)
haha, that makes a lot more sense. Region of Ruin and Meeple Station have the same publisher! :)
Hope you enjoy both games, they look great.
So, somehow this was not on my Steam wishlist. I'm glad I misremembered the name for the other game! Purchased! :D
Hello! Somehow the Steam key doesn't show up in the itch.io Downloads section – any steps we need to take to get this one? Thank you!
Huh, strange. Shoot me an email to raymond (dot) doerr (at) rayvolution (dot) net with a copy of your receipt, and I'll shoot a key your way. :)
I've already bought this on steam; can I use that to play it through itch or do I need to pay for it again? I think it would be worth it, but I would rather not pay twice.
If you can show me proof over on Steam you bought it, I'll give you a key over here. ;)
Having said that though, the game has no DRM, you can also just pull the install folder out of Steam and play it whereever you want anyways.
Hi, how do I go about for getting a key too? Also bought it on steam.
PS: The game is awesome, well done.
