Terrific castle-building sim Cataclismo is being transformed into a chunky strategy boardgame, care of a paid Old Kingdom expansion Out 20th August Excellent real-time castle defender Cataclismo is getting a DLC expansion, The Old Kingdom, which transforms it into a hex-based strategy boardgame. Players must hexpand from citadel to citadel, shoring up supply lines and unlocking technology while fending off the minions of the Mist. It's sort of the Cataclismo equivalent of Darkest Dungeon 2's Kingdoms mode, unfolding on a papery war table with books and playing pieces. Here is a representative excerpt from Nic's wallgasm: "The RTS-meets-tower-defence of its wave survival is sturdy and satisfying; its economic management tense and fraught with tight calls." The Old Kingdom expansion will launch on PC via Steam, GOG, the Epic Games Store, and the Microsoft Store on August 20th.
