Cataclismo
BUILDING BLOCKS
Is horde mode citybuilder CATACLISMO a towering achievement?
By Tom Sykes
Just popping out to pick up PC Gamer.
Certain units prefer high ground, but it’s costly building it.
That’s Iris far left, the only unit with magical powers.
If the citadel falls, it’s game over.
Cataclismo’s been in Early Access since last year, and it’s a testament to how well-realized the concept was that this is the same game, just with extra bits on. The biggest bits are the additional campaign missions, which round out the story of Iris, the mystical overseer on a mission to save humanity from the Horrors. It’s not a huge campaign, but the environments, units and structures are beautiful and the world is dripping with atmosphere.
