Reversed city-builder Flooded heading to Switch

Publisher Forever Entertainment, along with developer Artificial Disasters, today announced plans for a Switch version of Flooded. The reversed city-builder launches on November 9, 2023 with a demo coming the same day that lets you experience the first stages of the campaign mode.

Flooded has players optimizing their production on an island that shrinks over time. More information can be found in the following overview:

Water levels have suddenly risen worldwide, and all the solid ground remaining on the surface of our planet is shrinking extremely quickly. Together with a group of miners, you find yourself surprised by the rising water, and your only goal, for now, is to find safe ground.

As the land keeps shrinking, you’ll have to act quickly. Raise new buildings, gather resources, upgrade already built structures, and figure out how to escape from the island.

You’ll quickly find out that you’re not the only survivor of the flood. Unfortunately, not everyone is as friendly as you. Build defensive structures, plant water mines, and raise turrets to keep your people safe, not only from the water but also from the pirates.

Campaign: The campaign mode allows you to immerse yourself in the game’s plot. Follow the story of a group of miners whose peaceful lives were turned upside down in the blink of an eye by an enigmatic cataclysm. Explore uninhabited islands, meet new allies, fight mysterious invaders from the north, and discover the secret behind the great flood.

Quickplay: Adjust the gameplay settings and face your own customized challenge on a randomly generated island.

Endless: Develop a robust economy and produce resources before your base gets flooded. Once every four development eras, the island expands to give you a shot at surviving until the next cycle.
