About This Game

Townworks is a town builder on two levels: design a workshop's machinery by hand and grow your town by using those workshops to manufacture the products your population wants.

Draw a workshop

Pick saws, belts, arms and a ton of other items. Lay them tile by tile. The test bench shows what your line makes and where it jams.

Build it all over town

A finished design is a blueprint. Place copies along your roads and buy trucks to carry the goods. Save a better version and refit your copies: a few days under scaffolding, then they run the new design.

From crates to computers

Five eras take your town from crates to cars and home computers, and from windmills to a nuclear plant running on fuel rods you make.

Through the seasons

Leaves fall in autumn, and winter snow settles on roofs, fields and roads. Make sure your food stocks are filled!

Fill the Town Museum

Every era opens a new wing, with fireworks. Inside, the first blueprint that made each good is on show.

Go big

Research brings bigger sheets, faster belts and new machines. Run twenty forge hammers and make 480 bells a minute.

There is no combat, and nothing catches fire or breaks down. There is a sandbox mode that starts a town with unlimited coins and optionally all research unlocked.

AI Generated Content Disclosure

The developers describe how their game uses AI Generated Content like this:

As a solo developer AI helped me with:
- fine tuning text and Steam store descriptions
- solve complex coding issues
- visuals are not "ai" generated, but all visuals are programmatically generated within my own software, and the scripts that do that, are optimised by AI coding tools
