Welcome to Land of Dread!



Land of Dread is an isometric colony simulator with an emphasis on gathering resources, building resource-generating structures, and fighting hostile demons. Upgrade existing structures, assign jobs to colonists, and invest gold into resource imports.

100% indie, Land of Dread features custom sprites and an immersive, eerie soundtrack composed by Kevin MacLeod.
