A colony sim where your neighbours are real players

In Duskora you do not command an army but a handful of people. Every crew member gets hungry, thirsty and tired, has a mood, gets better at what they do often, and goes to work by themselves once you say what needs doing. You plan; they build.

Start your colony

A crew with needs

Your crew eat, drink and sleep by themselves, as long as you provide stock and a bed. Hungry or tired people work slower; a good meal and a bed with a mattress do wonders. If someone is hurt, you carry them to a medical bed. You never lose your three founders: badly hurt, they crawl on until someone takes them to bed.

Building by the tile

Walls, doors, windows and floors make rooms. Rooms keep light and warmth in at night. Inside you place beds, storage cabinets, a kitchen, a workshop, a sewing table and a research desk. If you want something better, you demolish and build again — wood becomes stone, a crate becomes a cabinet.

From potato to solar panel

You start with a saw, a hammer and a bag of seed potatoes. Then come fields and tree zones, a kitchen for proper meals, a smelter for metal, research, and in the end power: solar panels, energy cells and machines. Your level rises with everything your crew does, and unlocks new buildings and recipes up to level 80.

Not alone on the planet

The difference from a single-player colony game: others live around your camp. Caravans cross the world map, tribes remember how you treat them, and raiders come for your stock. You can trade, visit, work together in a clan — or attack.

Frequently asked questions

How many crew members do I have?

You start with two: one on their feet and a wounded friend to rescue. A third joins at level 5. You recruit more from tribes, strangers and prisoners.

Can my crew die?

Your three founders cannot: badly hurt, they crawl, and a medical bed gets them up again. Crew you recruit later can die; they can be brought back for coins.

What happens when I am not playing?

Your colony rests. When you return the game works out what your crew ate and finished, and a short summary tells you what happened.

Can I upgrade buildings?

No, on purpose: for a stone wall you demolish the wooden one and build again. Only a bed is improved, by laying a mattress on it.
