Indie Studio Digital Sun Games Sets Cataclismo Release for July 2024
In a significant announcement from Digital Sun Games, the indie studio behind titles like Moonlighter and The Mageseeker, comes Cataclismo, a real-time strategy and tower defense game slated for launch on July 16, 2024. Set in a post-apocalyptic world, Cataclismo introduces a unique, LEGO® inspired, brick-by-brick building system. Players are tasked with defending humanity’s final stronghold against monstrous threats, aiming to rebuild and rise from the ashes of a shattered world.
Gameplay and Features
Cataclismo offers a blend of strategy, creativity, and survival elements. The game features a 20-hour single player campaign that takes players on a journey from their early beginnings to becoming master builders. Assisting Lady Iris, a scholar in humanity’s last city, players will navigate a narrative of hope and perseverance. The campaign is enriched with cutscenes and voice acting, adding depth to the player’s experience.
Expansive Game Modes
Beyond the campaign, Cataclismo expands its gameplay through various modes:
- Survival Mode: Players face endless waves of enemies, challenging their defensive strategies.
- Creative Mode: A sandbox environment where players build freely without the threat of destruction.
- Skirmish Mode: Offers hand-crafted maps with unique challenges, testing players’ tactical skills.
These modes cater to a wide audience, ensuring replayability and engagement through diverse gameplay experiences.
Building and Defense Mechanics
Central to Cataclismo is its innovative building system. Players can construct castles brick by brick, using over 100 pieces for custom fortress designs. This system supports a physics-based construction approach, allowing for personalized defense strategies within the game’s world.
Defending against the nightly onslaught of Horrors requires strategic deployment of troops, each with unique tactical abilities. Players can arm their forces with various siege equipment, including flaming arrows and poison traps, to repel enemies and safeguard their stronghold.
A Milestone for Digital Sun Games
Cataclismo represents Digital Sun Games’ first venture into self-publishing, marking a pivotal moment in the studio’s growth. Following the success of their previous titles, Cataclismo is poised to further establish Digital Sun Games as a prominent name in the indie gaming scene.

Cataclismo will be available on PC starting July 16, 2024, offering players an intricate mix of building, combat, and strategy. With its engaging storyline, diverse game modes, and detailed building mechanics, Cataclismo is set to deliver a comprehensive gaming experience focused on the themes of survival and rebirth in a post-apocalyptic setting.
