Grow your tribe and advance through the primitive ages in this prehistoric city builder.
From Majic Jungle comes a city builder for the ages. Sapiens is an expansive building sim where players are the architects of a brand new prehistoric world. Beginning with a handful of tribe members, you’ll need to evolve your primitive hunters, grow their numbers, and lead them in creating a flourishing civilization that spans thousands of years. Set to make its debut during Steam’s Summer Next Fest, players will be able to carve out their new world from June 13th, 2022.
Accessible for those new to the genre but offering huge depth for veterans, Sapiens allows players to create a sprawling civilization from the ground up. Assign tribespeople jobs, determine their primary role and see them develop their new settlement as they plant crops, clear paths, gather materials, cook and build. Sapiens can also be assigned to investigation or diplomacy roles to help advance their society.
As the heart and soul of the game, your sapiens are key to expansion. Whether you send them to explore far-off lands to discover fresh resources or task them to build transportation networks, with the right management your tribe’s size and influence can rapidly expand. It will be down to you to manage their mood, build their shelters, keep them happy and preserve their resources. With every aspect of the game and its world interactable, right down to placing every wall, seat, or fireplace, you will need to determine how your settlement is built and maintained.
With a deep technology tree to unlock new abilities that allow sapiens to build tools and improve living conditions, players will also need to pay close attention to map regions. Some bring their own unique challenges, with weather effects and seasons playing a key part in maintaining your tribe, their settlement, and its likelihood of survival.
Set to add extensive mod support upon Early Access through Steam Workshop, Sapiens can be wishlisted now on Steam!
