About

Dawnmaker is a turn-based city building and deckbuilding game, made by 2 strategy fans. It feels like playing a solo board game. Build luminous cities, optimize your deck and create powerful combinations between buildings and cards to bring life back to a dead world. Play the demo now!

Dawnmaker is a solo strategy game combining elements of city building and deck building to create a board game-like experience. In a world covered by a toxic Smog, only you can rekindle the ancient lighthouses and bring light and life back. Construct buildings, gain new cards, generate resources and improve your central lighthouse to unlock new building space.

  • Optimize your deck — Gain increasingly powerful cards as you improve your city. Your cards and buildings interact in various ways: choose them wisely to create the most powerful combinations!

  • Build efficient cities — Make the best of your limited space by optimally positioning your buildings. Improve your lighthouse to repel the Smog and expand your city.

  • Manage your resources — Grow farms, build industries, develop science and inspire your people to create the rarest of resources: Eclairium!

  • Reclaim the lost continent — The continent of Heksiga has been covered by a toxic Smog. Repair and improve magical lighthouses to repel that Smog and reclaim the land, region by region.

  • Recover lost technologies — Explore vestiges of the old Empire and rediscover technologies that were lost to the Smog.
