About Townsmen VR
Build a medieval village within a completely interactively simulated world!
Townsmen VR leverages the exciting possibilities of virtual reality to enhance the classic city-building game further, offering entirely new gameplay experiences and interactive mechanics. The game combines elements of a God-game simulation and a classic building game with the interactive possibilities of VR controls. Whether viewed from a bird's-eye view or zoomed in close, you will always experience the action from the proper perspective.
Start with a small settlement and expand your might over a world of 13 different islands and archipelagos. Filled to the brim with exciting features, gizmos, and things to lay your virtual hands on. Build and upgrade more than 20 unique buildings. Immerse yourself in a thrilling story with many exciting quests, or play completely free in the sandbox mode with goals set by you. Hours of fun are guaranteed!
You are God!
As the population of your empire grows, so does the demand for food and goods. Production chains help you meet this need. When you build farms, you can grind the grain harvest there at the mill and bake delicious bread for your Townies from the flour. Your windmill won’t operate when the winds are calm? No worries, give those wings a push. Slap that lazy dude with a fish or help your citizens collect about 20 different raw materials. Do you want to see the world you helped create from the perspective of a townsman? Use your godly powers and scale yourself to experience your town at eye level with your townies.A not-so-peaceful land
Farm animals, such as cows, sheep, and chickens, provide essential resources for food production. Your hunters will find rabbits and deer to stalk and hunt. You must be cautious of wild animals, such as wolves or bears, that you encounter. Seagulls are eager to steal your catch, while above the battlefields the crows caw, and high up in the sky, eagles fly free.
In time, you should begin to hire soldiers to defend your realm against intruders and enemy forces! Besides different types of soldiers, you can also make use of heavy artillery: A catapult can punch sensitive gaps in the enemy’s ranks! And should you run out of boulders, remember: everything you can lay your hands on can be used as ammo! However, the enemy kingdom is not the only problem your soldiers will face. Some islands are infested with sinister pirates who are after your precious resources!
Explore islands in new ways
Intuitive control of the environment allows you to move about – you can literally crawl over the island or adjust your viewpoint as you would position images on your smartphone. You’ll get accustomed to ruling your empire very fast.
Most of the islands you visit during the campaign can be unlocked for unrestricted play in the sandbox mode. You'll be able to choose whether you want to play completely without constraints, or give yourself a bit of excitement and accept the challenges you choose. Determine the number of townies you start the game with, defeat all opponents or fight against thieving pirates – the various settings offer you enough freedom for your personal gaming experience!

slow and tedius, no speed up time mechanic4 found this helpful
I've got a ton of VR experience and I have to say this one is up there. The game looks and runs really well and it's just a cozy experience. The biggest downside is that it's really slow and things take a long time to happen and it's hardly any challenge, but it's really satisfying to grow your town and watch things happen and the campaign is nice so far. A huge bonus is that it controls exactly like the Demeo games, so basically it's familiar, to me, and perfect in that regard. I highly recommend it.3 found this helpful
This is the best VR game i've ever played!! No Cap. I, myself, get easily nauseous when it comes to VR games and since I also love City Building Games, Townsmen VR was the perfect one for me. My only gripe is my VR headset's battery doesn't last as long as I want to play! I've been playing hours on this and I honestly love the idea of managing everyone like you're GOD. My two cents in this would be I wish there's a fast forward or speed up mode at least because I honestly don't want to stare at my citizens just walking around whilst my headset/VR battery depletes because it's slow paced. Other than that, I would realllyyyyyy love to have more of this in the future, more content and more things to look forward to. Thank you for this game!
Okay even though I'm still quite new to the game I have to give a positive review. Every time I play I am amazed by the detail this game gives you. You're managing the island for a god like perspective and when for example you're waiting longer then expected on your wooden planks and can zoom in at your woodcutter as if you're almost next to him checking out what the heck he is up to. Oh no he's going for some far tree at the bad side of the island where the wolves got his ass. It is slow but it has to be. Think how extremely slow culters was and we loved that. In the mean time you zoom in on your hunter, did the farmers cow gave enough milk already then one can come to the slaughterhouse with the hunter. His produces are critical. Explore every part of the island, zoom in like you're there and search for some treasure. Very nice game, the VR aspect makes me play this in favor of the dozen of rts/civ games (it isn't an rts by that means actually btw) in my library.
good relaxing VR game for new users
Very cute, I love this game
