In the game "River Towns", players have to switch between different levels to "place buildings of various shapes and adapt them to limited areas."Those buildings are basically the same shape as Tetris, so placing them in the right place is the fun of the game.

"As the town develops, more urban residents will move in, injecting vitality into this ancient and dilapidated world." The game's introduction on the Steam platform explains, "During the entire game, you will also encounter it.To other goals, such as collecting gold coins, regenerating trees and rebuilding ancient monuments. This will completely overturn the difficulty and possibility of collecting scores."

For such a creative idea, developer Frogsong Studios has gone through some difficulties in the development process before it has reached this point.On the crowdfunding platform Kickstarter, Anders Trin, co-founder and chief artist of the studio, explained that the studio had to lay off almost the entire team because 2024 is for developers who just want to keep their jobs.To be honest, it's too difficult.That's when the founder of Frogsong Studios met independent publisher Stray Fawn and decided to help the game finally complete development through crowdfunding.

The goal of "Riverside Town" is to be released sometime in 2025, but for the moment, you can check out its free trial on the Steam platform.
