About Timberborn

✦ AI summary

Lead a beaver colony through droughts and toxic seasons, building dams, aqueducts, and towering wooden structures to survive in a post-apocalyptic world. Manage resources, automate production chains, and reshape terrain with advanced water physics while choosing between the nature-loving Folktails or industrious Iron Teeth factions.

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.

Beaver societies

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!

Wet, dry, and toxic seasons

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.

Water physics and terraforming

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.

Vertical architecture

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.

Lumberpunk

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.

Automation

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.

Bots

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.

Well-being

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.

Map editor and mods

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.

its is really good must play
Not recommended Sep 8, 2026
worst polished 1.0 colony manager game, should've stayed in early. Auto save sucks sh*t from a straw in a sewer (no control and saves when afk and paused, why?) and the priority system is even worse (limited, no emergency alert for building or working). will change review when fixed :*
Recommended Sep 8, 2026
It's fun, and easy to spend tons of time building and upgrading. But I did have to use search engines to help me understand basic gameplay quirks, the tutorial doesn't help much. And I highly recommend beginners playing on the easiest settings because some things just aren't explained (bad tide?).
Not recommended Sep 8, 2026
They removed sluices from the game and made damns a giant resource dumb with pumps and power if you want a lot of spare water and not a lot of tanks taking up land. Biggest downgrade in a game in a long time.
Recommended Sep 8, 2026
By far one of the best city builders I've played. The water mechanics add a whole new level of challenge, without things feeling too overwhelming. The devs are also very active. Definitely recommend!
Recommended Sep 8, 2026
beavers + tree's + water Fun with added challenges of evil bad water and droughts
