Dawnmaker

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.

Available in English, French and Japanese.

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.
