New roguelike strategy game gives city building a Terraria style twist

From Cities Skylines 2 and Against the Storm to the upcoming Frostpunk 2, most city building games are all about expanding your urban sprawl across a wide stretch of map. That format gets a perspective twist in new roguelike strategy game Vertical Kingdom, however, which demands you construct your cities upwards into the sky in the style of a Terraria town, earning new cards and gathering resources to help construct your towering metropolises, and it's out now on Steam with a special Steam sale discount for launch.

[h3]🃏 Draw Cards & Build Your City[/h3]
Raise towering cities using a card-based system. Pick five decks each turn, then play the cards to build upwards. Manage resources like food, water, bricks, wood, stone, and metal, all needed to ensure the city has room to grow and play new cards.

[h3]🏰 Revive a Lost Empire[/h3]
As the Great Architect, it's your job to rebuild the Empire, one building and one region at a time. Undertake great expeditions to raise new cities in the Emperor's name and deal with the challenges of each region: Treacherous terrain, resource shortages, and ever-limited building space.

[h3]📝 Planning is Everything[/h3]
Take ownership of every decision and every card played as all buildings are permanent, no redos. Plan around and synergize with imperial citizen’s homes and workshops. Produce more taxes, resources, and maintain loyalty to the Empire - and just maybe the locals will help you with the great evil that lurks among the ruins…
