Fantasy colony builder game
Ark Charon is a premium simulation game from developers Angoo Inc. and Sunsoft. It is a fantasy-themed colony-building experience that has players establish and defend a colony on top of a walking tree-like creature. They will need to defend it against all kinds of attacks and collect resources to ensure it survives the perilous journey.
Similar to Tiny Tactics or Revenge of the Titans, Ark Charon incorporates tower defense mechanics into its gameplay to add a layer of action and tactics to the experience. They will set forth on a journey that features multiple paths to take.
World Tree
In Ark of Charon, the World Tree has withered away, but a new sapling has sprouted, bringing hope of new life. You are given the task of being its caretaker and guide as it embarks on a journey to restore humanity. However, the road ahead is filled with unknown dangers, and it's also up to you to do whatever it takes to protect the last scion from harm.
You will need to establish infrastructures that will help support and sustain the sapling. For that, your Golems gather resources from the various places you will visit. Next, put up defenses by constructing weapons to fend off all kinds of creatures that will attack. Stockpiling materials and ammo will be crucial, but you also have to be wary of the limited space atop the sapling.
You will also get to discover and unlock lost technologies once used by humanity that will let you build more powerful weapons and advanced structures. Now, one thing you have to keep in mind as you dive into this game is that it's still an Early Access title. Thus, development is still ongoing as it receives more content and bug fixes in future updates.
Last hope
To sum up, Ark of Charon is a game that blends tactical tower defense gameplay with colony management mechanics and a dark fantasy setting to offer a compelling experience. Being in Early Access, it's still rough around the edges but has the potential to be great as development and updates pour in. Give it a try now and see for yourself.
