I spent my morning playing a new indie survival game called Towers of Aghasba, where you lead a group of characters trying to rebuild their community on an island. The game is full of features like gathering materials, crafting items, building villages, and exploring biomes. Despite some bugs and rough edges in the Early Access version, the game has a charm to it.
One of the highlights of my gameplay was the sense of exploration. While there is a lot to do in the game, I found myself wandering off the beaten path and discovering hidden gems like characterful rocks to climb and ancient ruins. These personal discoveries added a layer of enjoyment beyond the usual tasks of gathering and crafting.
The game seems to strike a balance between busywork and exploration, encouraging players to not only build their village but also appreciate the environment and wildlife around them. The simple pleasures of watching your resources grow while also taking moments to wander and explore create a unique experience in Towers of Aghasba.
Overall, the game has potential to offer a mix of engaging gameplay mechanics and moments of peaceful exploration. With further development and polishing, Towers of Aghasba could become a compelling indie title for players looking for a fun and quirky adventure.
