Brave New Wonders is a post-apocalyptic automation game with a twist, offering players a unique tribe of intelligent machines that can interpret any instruction issued to them. It’s a new game from City From Naught, a studio that previously released a narrative thriller called Keyword, which has racked up hundreds of reviews on Steam.
Brave New Wonders just got a new trailer during the Insider Gaming Showcase, with City From Naught unveiling more content ahead of the game’s impending release.
What is Brave New Wonders?
Brave New Wonders is a factory automation strategy game built on a foundation supported by smart AI automatons. The world has ended, and you’re in command of a legion of mechanical constructs looking to explore ruins, battle enemies, expand production facilities, and automate manufacturing lines.
As you dig through the remnants of civilization, you’ll uncover secrets of days gone by, working your way through new evolutionary paths to add branches to your own narrative tree.
Every playthrough is unique, and the world is rich, varied, and ripe for exploration and salvaging.
Key Features
Intelligent, Text-Based Commands
Using text-based prompts, users can request that their automatons do anything that comes to mind. Factories, robots, and other wonders can all be guided this way, and it’s only your imagination that presents a barrier to evolution. In this game, the sky is not the limit!
Distinct and Diverse World
Brave New Wonders has a world made up of islands, which you’ll navigate using a massive airship, a host for factories and production lines. As you explore the world, you’ll see diverse biomes, some of which are bursting with loot and salvage, while others offer deep, ancient secrets that you must uncover.
Early Access Feedback Loop
Early access games are nothing without their feedback mechanisms, and Brave New Wonders has that in droves. The game utilizes a unique feedback feature that can be pulled up at any moment, even if you want to just share a comment about a particular asset, mechanic, or process.
