About Night is Coming

Night is Coming is a survival strategy game set in a fantasy world inspired by Slavic mythology and the nature of Eastern Europe.The Darkness is relentlessly devouring the lands, forcing survivors to hide in the woods, where each new day is a battle against death. You are to lead a group of those humbled by impending dread: build and develop your settlement, gather resources, and protect your people from monsters that lurk in the dark. Take care of the settlers, make them learn crafts and military skills so their next sunset is not their last. Over time, you will have to leave the lands you developed and look for the new ones... Who knows, maybe there you will find out how to repel the inevitable danger and save the world.Will you be able to do all that is needed before the sunset?Your management skills and strategic vision will determine the fate of your people. Delegate tasks to your settlers: regulate the gathering of essential resources, provision of food, clothing, and shelter. Attract new settlers. Teach them farming, smithing, and other necessary crafts. Explore the surrounding lands and send your warriors to search for rare materials. Who knows what unexpected lands and what random events await you there...Each settler is an individual with their own attributes, needs, skills, and strengths. Govern them wisely and guide their talents towards the settlement improvement. Settlers' morale will impact their resilience and determine their capability to overcome life struggles and challenges.Build houses to protect your dwellers and keep them warm, workshops to make tools, and barracks to train your warriors. And don't forget about warehouses for storing resources. Infrastructure plays a crucial role in settlement growth: upgrade your buildings to increase production efficiency, provide settlers with everything they need, and strengthen your defenses against the approaching Darkness.Develop a strong military force by training warriors of various specialties and enhancing the defense of your borders. You can supervise each warrior directly or trust them to act independently. Magic is also your ally: different spells can help you with the needs of your settlers as well as support you on a battlefield — by using magic you can protect your warriors and cause damage to your enemies.The nights grow increasingly longer and colder, but snowstorms and penetrating frost are not your only enemies... Portals open everywhere, allowing Prince Velimir's servants to hunt down the survivors. The longer you stay in one place, the stronger the Darkness grows and more ruthless the nights become: with every house built, with every lair destroyed the pressure of the woods only gets worse. Ghouls, Leshies, Werewolves, and Night Hags are only some of the creatures that will try to destroy your settlement. You'll have to defend your land against monsters and defeat their Baron so that you are able to move to new lands.The future of your settlement depends on your progress. You will need to collect Spirit Energy, Darkness Shards, technology and defense points and use them to research new technologies and advance your manufacturing methods to master farming, build new structures, and increase their level and efficiency. Moreover, you'll be able to unlock new spells, magic boosters, new warrior subclasses, advanced armor, and weaponry.Experience a dynamic and ever-changing world: sunrises and sunsets, sounds of nature, elemental spirits, seasonal and weather changes. All of this will be accompanied by an enchanting soundtrack from master instrumentalist Alizbar, as well as by many other original tracks.

What Steam players say

Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.

✦ AI summary

The game has a promising core concept with engaging gameplay and good art direction, but players report it has been abandoned by developers for nearly two years with no communication, leaving numerous game-breaking bugs unfixed including material transfer issues, resource spawning problems, and priority system failures. While some players found 20+ hours of enjoyable content before hitting bugs, the lack of support, frequent crashes, and unresolved technical issues make it difficult to recommend in its current state.

Game looks abandoned, no updates for almost 2 years, discord is abandoned, game is still buggy and glitchy. And this crap goes on sale to squeze some more money? Not cool.

I really like the concept, art direction and the music, but right now, it's far too buggy for me to recommend. Edit: just checked the steam forums, apparently it's abandoned.

Night is Coming, developed by Wild Forest Studio and published by 101XP, presents a compelling blend of settlement management, survival strategy, and dark fantasy storytelling. Drawing heavily from Slavic folklore, the game drops players into a world where civilization is slowly being consumed by a supernatural force known as the Darkness. Rather than building an empire meant to last forever, players guide groups of survivors seeking temporary refuge as they move from one region to another. This premise immediately sets the title apart from traditional city-builders, creating a persistent sense of urgency that influences nearly every aspect of gameplay. The game's central loop revolves around establishing settlements, gathering resources, and preparing for the inevitable arrival of hostile creatures once night falls. Woodcutting, farming, mining, hunting, and crafting all play vital roles in keeping the population alive. Every villager contributes to the settlement's success through specialized roles, allowing players to shape a community capable of adapting to increasingly harsh conditions. The migration mechanic is particularly noteworthy, as it prevents players from becoming ov…

I wish I could play the game. I played the demo just fine. But now that I have purchased the game It freezes my computer every time I press play on steam. I don't understand because I play games that require much more on the specs for a PC. I really enjoy this game. I understand it is unsupported on steam but hopefully something changes. Is there anyone else with this issue? This is no way a bad review I just would like to play the game. Maybe it is my computer and I'm just not seeing the disconnect. If someone could lend a helping hand I would greatly appreciate it.
