About
Mankind turned Earth into a dry wasteland and perished, but some species adapted and evolved. Pick one of the beaver factions and see how long your colony can last.
Control one of two beaver factions: the nature-friendly Folktails or the industrious Iron Teeth. Each faction has unique buildings, technology, and gameplay traits. Choose what fits your playstyle!
Prepare your settlement for recurring droughts and waves of toxic waste. Stockpile food and keep fields and forests alive even after rivers dry up. Rely on both natural water sources and artificial irrigation to keep the land arable and your beavers safe.
Beavers’ engineering skills are legendary. With Timberborn’s 3D water physics and terraforming, so can be yours. Put up dams and floodgates, erect massive aqueducts, dig canals and tunnels with explosives, and reshape the terrain to your liking.
Harness the game’s unique vertical architecture system. Space is limited, so stack lodges and workshops on top of each other. Construct platforms and bridges, set up an elaborate power grid, and let your beavers speed around on ziplines or through tubeways.
Turn timber into sophisticated machinery – from water wheels and lumber mills to engines and mechanized pumps. Wood is the core resource in Timberborn, but the most advanced structures require metal. To find it, send your scavengers to the ruins of the old world.
Automate tasks across your settlement by creating an intricate system of sensors, relays, counters, and other tools for advanced engineers. Self-controlling dams and factories are just the beginning.
Supercharge your colony with mechanized beavers. Power them up, maintain them, and you'll get extra-efficient workers for almost any job. They operate 24/7, and you can send them to the most hazardous areas.
Build a sprawling city with efficient production chains and follow the lives of its inhabitants day and night. As the population grows, satisfy your evolved rodents with a balanced diet, entertainment, decorations, and end-game monuments that help restore the Earth.
Play on one of the included maps or create your own and share it with the community. On top of the built-in map editor, Timberborn features official mod support. Tons of extra player-made content and quality-of-life additions are available, with more coming each day.

I wanted to love factorio but I like my resource management games to have a little more cuteness in their aesthetic. I loved playing stardew for the optimization but didn't like the social quests to progress. Timberborn is perfect! The beavers are cute, the vibe is woodsy, and I love the factory mechanics. There is so much to this game I truly lose track of time playing it.
Pros: Beavers Cons: ???
Great colony builder that does not dive too deep into management, yet it allows for complex multi layer city structures and fluid dynamics.
Chill colony builder with cute hairy wet beavers.
Quickly has become one of my all time favourite games, the slow pace and environmental factors really add to the charm of this game. I just wish i could have more factions for more scenarios
What a cool and chill game - until the first badtide arrives :-)
Beaver funny
Love it
Fun and relaxing colony / city builder.
El tutorial inicial te explica lo suficiente como para iniciar el juego pero te deja varias cosas para deduccion o que las averigues por tu cuenta. Tiene la suficiente dificultad para mantenerte enganchado pero no para desanimarte. Buen city builder,
