You’ll get so engrossed building castles and barricades that you’ll almost forget about the monsters in survival RTS Cataclismo, out next week in Early Access

I don’t think I’ve ever paused so much in a strategy game. Survival city builder tower defence RTS Cataclismo is going to be a game with a lot of Steam tags attached, but also tons of screenshots on social media of our elaborate player-made fortifications. Utilitarian ring walls of beefy stone, ramshackle holdfasts held together with rapidly splintering wood, or—and this is where you’ll be hitting Spacebar before embarking on a lengthy building session—intricate labyrinths of medieval barricades that would have the Minotaur thinking ‘This is a bit much, actually.’

As we’ve previously discovered, Cataclismo—out July 22 in Early Access form—is a game about building settlements, and then defending them from waves of ghoul-like Horrors. The campaign follows Lady Iris of the Last City as she embarks on an expedition to learn the secrets of her magical powers, and the apocalyptic mist the Horrors spawn from, every night.

The days have you gathering resources and placing pre-fab buildings in traditional RTS style, while dispatching units to scout your surroundings, and plopping beacons down to expand your territory. Where the game lets you get really creative is with its bulging toy box of Lego-like building blocks, as you have to construct all your defences manually, brick by brick.
