About
Dawnmaker is a solo strategy game combining elements of city building and deck building to create a board game-like experience. In a world covered by a toxic Smog, only you can rekindle the ancient lighthouses and bring light and life back. Construct buildings, gain new cards, generate resources and improve your central lighthouse to unlock new building space.

Optimize your deck — Gain increasingly powerful cards as you improve your city. Your cards and buildings interact in various ways: choose them wisely to create the most powerful combinations!
Build efficient cities — Make the best of your limited space by optimally positioning your buildings. Improve your lighthouse to repel the Smog and expand your city.
Manage your resources — Grow farms, build industries, develop science and inspire your people to create the rarest of resources: Eclairium!

Reclaim the lost continent — The continent of Heksiga has been covered by a toxic Smog. Repair and improve magical lighthouses to repel that Smog and reclaim the land, region by region.
Recover lost technologies — Explore vestiges of the old Empire and rediscover technologies that were lost to the Smog.

最初こそ癖の有るルールに戸惑いますが、何度かプレイすると対応方法が見えてきます。 最初の1,2プレイで離脱する人には合わない可能性があります。ワンプレイにはそこそこ時間を要します。 3度、4度とプレイしつつ、過去の失敗を繰り返さない挑戦を試みる事が出来ると、しっかりハマる攻略法が見出せます。 そういう自分で攻略方法を探るプレイヤーにとっては面白いゲームだと思います。 ビジュアルに関しては、ストアにある画面がほとんど全てで、代り映えはしません。絵を求める人には向いていません。
Solid little deckbuilder/citybuilder/roguelike with mechanics that genuinely push you to do better. Nice soundscape and beautiful art really help keep it engaging as well.
