    Cataclismo is one of the most interesting and mechanically satisfying strategy games I've played in recent years, as you build all your defensive structures brick-by-brick like lego, which snap together with a nice clunk. It just got an expansion DLC, so the game is on sale.

    Hey folks, I've added Cataclismo to my curator page. This is an incredibly neat game with some fascinating and very satisfying building mechanics, where you build your defensive structures brick by brick, and build huge elaborate castles like Lego. It's neat! store.steampowered.com/app/1422440/...

    I bought Cataclismo on its 1.0 release, and ended up playing it until like 6am, utterly transfixed by the building mechanics, how it's kinda tower defense, but every defensive structure must be build brick by brick as if you're playing a strategy game with Lego.

    29. Cataclismo Hooded Horse keep publishing games that suck me in for hours on end, and this one had me fascinated with it's building mechanics, it's sort of tower defense where you have to build your defensive structures brick by brick, and the higher you build the more reinforced they get.

    And I hate to compare it to They Are Billions again, but in that game you picked a hero character at the start, and you could only take them into special side-missions. In Cataclismo your hero character Lady Iris is with you through all the main missions, and can cast very powerful spells.

    #23) CATACLISMO by DIGITAL SUN Another Nextfest discovery! I haven't played the full game yet, but I thought the demo was so interesting. It's a free-build voxel game in tight, twisty valleys where you have to do tower defense with walls that can break at each individual voxel. Tantalizing stuff.
