Description

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.

Beaver societies

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!

Wet, dry, and toxic seasons

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.

Water physics and terraforming

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.

Vertical architecture

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.

Lumberpunk

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.

Bots

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.

Well-being

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.

Map editor and mods

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.

City builder game + water manager

Timberborn is a city builder game with some unique twists. You play as little beavers. Your task is to build a sustainable settlement for your beavers. The are a few challenges though. Droughts and bad-water floods. You will need to cleverly use the landscape to harvest trees, crops, produce energy, housing, entertainment, build monuments and a world wonder to win. There are currently 2 factions with unique buildings and mechanisms. Absolutely worth the money if you like games such as Banished, Caesar II, the settlers etc.

Beavertopia

I was sold on this game when it was basically just water moving around and the developers have really done a fantastic job with the additions. it's crazy to compare the game NOW with how it was when i first bought it. It's a very deep and interesting city builder. like all city builders it bogs down at times but the addition of goals to achieve has added a nice "get to this and feel like you finished the map" feel that a lot lack. the water physics aren't perfect all the time but they're REALLY fun to play around with and basically all the mechanics are usable, plus you can in unintuitive interesting ways, like semi-nomadically moving around the map or a more traditional 'stay in one place and build big'. Great game imo

Love this game, can't recommend enough

This game is overall, just a relaxing colony builder. And if you accept that, then you've found a game that you will keep coming back to. I find myself thinking about this game randomly all the time when I'm not even at my pc. The lore is unique, maybe not super well fleshed out, but it is fun to think about beavers becoming the sole survivors and rebuilding the world. The devs are crushing this title imo. The fluid dynamics is fun to play with, and it's so vital to the success of a run. The multi level build system forces your strategies to literally think about how you're going to build up, down, left, right, and sideways. This game is exactly what is advertised and then some.

Great game

I just enjoy build such complex structures from buildings. Their variety and look is awesome. Game is like some kind of easy Dwarf Fortress. You can build amazing structures, redo landscape or loose your settlement like in Dwarf Fortress but with beautiful graphics, great performance (for my 2.5 years old PC, at least) and beavers. Also, game simulates water movement very realistic and I am just admire that because I know how hard it is to program. Despite being in development, this game is already better than, for example, Settlers. Well done, 10 of 10.
