Trailer: Tech fuses with magic in city-builder Scorchlands

Take control of the Giwi, an alien civilization, and colonize their world’s moon with magical high-technology in next month’s Scorchlands.

Tech and magic, one and the same

The volcanic moon of Helia is a hostile place to live. This doesn’t discourage the birdfolk of Giwi as they try to colonize the satellite. No wonder, since they are masters of technology, magic, terraformation and… resource logistics.

In Scorchlands you will manage multiple colonies, gathering resources and discovering inventions essential for survival in a hostile environment. The moon’s landscape will change drastically in time – forests, meadows, and lakes will fill the surface and the whole satellite will be crossed with lasers, the means of transportation for resources.

Star Drifters press release

From indie studio Star Drifters, Scorchlands is coming up next month for the PC. Look for it on February 7th, 2023.
