The domestic vertical city construction game "Stario: Haven Tower" developed by Star Gate Studio officially launched the early experience version on the Steam platform today.

"Tower of Babel: Vertical Country" is a simulated solo tour that combines the elements of tower wonder construction, resource management and doomsday survival.As the "Tower Master", the player will lead the tower people to build giant towers into the sky in a world threatened by natural disasters, plan production in vertical space, resist disasters, and finally reach the end of the sky.

Wonders, technology, natural disasters...the rich main line of tower building

The Early Access version contains the full mainline content, with three different difficulty options, which can provide at least tens of hours of tower construction experience.

Compared with the previous demo version, the EA version has been greatly expanded and optimized in terms of content and system.

Explore six atmospheric areas: Players can travel through six different atmospheres: windy and sand zone, fog zone, rainy zone, ice and snow zone, clear sky zone and starry sky zone, each area has unique environmental characteristics and resource distribution.

Manta rays will visit the rainy area, while giant whales will cruise in the clear sky, adding rich ecological elements to the game.

Building the Miracle Tower: A brand new milestone wonder adds a sense of ritual to the player’s construction journey.

Each atmospheric area has a unique miracle tower building. After completion, it can not only increase the upper limit of the tower people's belief value, but more importantly, it can reduce the threat of natural disasters and provide tower people with shelter from the "gods".

Unlocking the technology tree layer by layer: The game provides a complete technology tree of more than 70 special buildings and technical processes. Players can unlock new construction options and production facilities through technological research.The function of renovating the tower body is also set to the initial default open, reducing the difficulty of getting started and trial and error costs.

Dynamic Natural Disaster System: The Natural Disaster System, as the core challenge mechanism of the game, has been completely renovated.

Regarding natural disasters, we have added teaching guidance, and the duration and impact intensity of natural disasters will also be dynamically adjusted according to the difficulty.

In the middle and late stages of the game, players can even actively summon natural disasters through rituals.Controlling the power of nature reflects the way people and nature go from passive defense to active control, greatly enriching the gameplay.

When we are discussing the Tower of Babel: More than just construction

The rich cultural atmosphere makes "Tower of Babel: Vertical Country" far more than a mechanical and plain tower simulator.

The production team drew a lot of nutrients from various cultural works during the design process: Tedjiang's science fiction novel "The Tower of Babylon" provides the game with a depth of philosophical thinking, the comic "The Labyrinth of the Tower" contributes a unique visual aesthetic, and the infinite possible tree house construction in "Minecraft" inspired the game's freedom design.

Through innovative mechanisms such as the Miracle Tower System and the Ritual Platform, the game cleverly integrates these cultural thoughts into actual gameplay.

The unique miracle architecture of each atmospheric area is not only a milestone in the game process, but also carries the ancient imagination of human beings that "the dangerous building is hundreds of feet high and can pick the stars with your hands."

The ceremony platform system further reflects the strategic depth of the game.

Players can unlock and build a ritual platform in the technology tree to perform three different rituals: "Aether, Vita, and Fabrik":

Astronomical rituals can affect the overall climate and external environment, and can even summon specific natural disasters to come; life-like rituals mainly act on the state of tower people, such as [Migration Ceremony] expanding the scope of work, [Flame Ceremony] improving cold resistance; skill-like rituals have a direct impact on the tower body, such as [Oritosnake Ceremony] that can enable inventory interoperability at the top and bottom of the tower.All rituals require continuous consumption of materials and players need to make strategic choices between resident gain and short-term bursts.

The production team hopes that players can feel this cultural resonance across time and space while experiencing vertical construction, so that the construction process is not only resource management, but also an in-depth exploration of the vertical lifestyle.

This design concept that integrates multiple cultural elements is the core of the creation of "Tower of Babel: Vertical Country".

In the EA version, the new Tamin Wishing System adds a warm humanistic color to the game.

These busy villains are no longer just cold labor statistics, but lively individuals with their own ideas and wishes.

They will express various demands to players through the wish wall, helping them realize their wishes not only improve overall happiness, but also receive unexpected mysterious feedback.

This design concept reflects the value pursuit of the production team: compared with the precise and cold industrial simulation, they hope that players can experience the macro sense of responsibility and accomplishment in "Tower of Babel: Vertical Country" while being given more worldly warmth.

The early access version of "Tower of Babel: Vertical Country" has been officially launched on the Steam platform, with a national price of 42 yuan, and it only costs 37.8 yuan to enjoy a 10% discount within two weeks of the first release.

Invite all players to embark on this construction journey that challenges the law of gravity and write a building legend that belongs to humans in the clouds.
