Mankind turned Earth into a dry wasteland and perished, but some species adapted and evolved. Pick one of the beaver factions and see how long your colony can last.
Control one of two beaver factions: the nature-friendly Folktails or the industrious Iron Teeth. Each faction has unique buildings, technology, and gameplay traits. Choose what fits your playstyle!
Prepare your settlement for recurring droughts and waves of toxic waste. Stockpile on food and keep fields and forests alive even after rivers dry up. Rely on both natural water sources and artificial irrigation to keep the land arable and your beavers safe.
Beavers’ engineering skills are legendary. With Timberborn’s 3D water physics and terraforming, so can be yours. Put up dams and floodgates, erect massive aqueducts, dig canals and tunnels with explosives, and reshape the terrain to your liking.
Harness the game’s unique vertical architecture system. Space is limited, so stack lodges and workshops on top of each other. Construct platforms and bridges, set up an elaborate power grid, and let your beavers speed around on ziplines or through tubeways.
Turn timber into sophisticated machinery – from water wheels and lumber mills to engines and mechanized pumps. Wood is the core resource in Timberborn, but the most advanced structures require metal. To find it, send your scavengers to the ruins of the old world.
Supercharge your colony with mechanized beavers. Power them up, maintain them, and you'll get extra efficient workers for almost any job. They operate 24/7, and you can send them to the most hazardous areas.
Build a sprawling city with efficient production chains and follow the lives of its inhabitants day and night. As the population grows, satisfy your evolved rodents with a balanced diet, entertainment, decorations, and end-game monuments that help restore the Earth.
Play on one of the included maps or create your own and share it with the community. On top of the built-in map editor, Timberborn features official mod support. Tons of extra player-made content and quality-of-life additions are available, with more coming each day.

It can only get better
If this Early Access shows something it's that it's currently a great game with potential of being even better. Solid recommendation from me

Beaver Auschwitz (bought on Steam)
A terribly long drought came in on hard mode (22 days long). A few days in, I could see that we were running out of water and my village was overpopulated. I knew that every single citizen of Beaverton would die of thirst if I didn't do something drastic, quickly. I decided to build a second town center that was surrounded by only a few extra builder huts. The beavers that I sent here had no access to food or water, all that was in this district were builder's huts for the nearby reservoir that needed to be built. That's right, you guessed it. In order to ration our water and survive, I sent half of my population to a literal labor camp/death camp. Every single beaver in that second district died in less than a week, but their sacrifice will not be forgotten. This is one of my all-time favorite gaming memories. Timberborn is absolutely incredible. I have played a lot of colony sims (Frostpunk, Endzone, Banished, Rimworld, etc) and this is by far the best one. The water mechanics really make the game unique and engaging. It's the perfect mix of complexity and simplicity. It's not overly complex like Oxygen Not Included and Factorio, to where the mechanics are so convoluted that you need to look up guides, graphs, and charts in order to figure it all out. But it's not super simple either. In most colony sims, if you need X, then just build Y building, and you're done. Timberborn is different, and it adds a level of complex strategy because everything depends on your access to water, which is a physics-based commodity. You can't just build a water generator (like a well) and then you have all the water you need. No. You have to actively direct the flow of water from the streams and rivers by building dams, reservoirs, canals, and etc in order to make sure that your colony survives the droughts.
