About Doloc Town
Doloc Town is a side‑scrolling pixel‑art farming simulation set after an apocalypse. You play a young scavenger who discovers a small settlement and begins building a farm from the ground up while battling harsh weather and hostile creatures.
The game blends gathering, farming, building, fishing, ranching, gene editing and automation. Over 30 hours of core play and additional content let you befriend townsfolk, celebrate festivals, explore dangerous zones and gradually turn a wasteland into a thriving community.
01 / THE GUIDE
Gathering Resources
The world offers more than 40 types of minerals, plants, scraps and other materials shaped by the apocalypse. Even discarded junk can be repurposed for crafting or farming needs. Exploration of River Valley, Wetlands, caves and ruins yields unique resources, each tied to the region’s environment and challenges.
- Prioritize areas with distinct weather to collect varied resource types.
- Carry a storage upgrade early to avoid returning to town frequently.
02 / THE GUIDE
Weather Management
Acid rain, scorching heat and relentless thunderstorms affect crops. Players can turn these extremes to their advantage by harnessing lightning for power and using rain for irrigation. Managing weather is essential for maintaining self‑sufficiency and protecting fields from damage.
- Set up lightning collectors before storms arrive.
- Use rain‑water barrels to store excess water for dry periods.

03 / THE GUIDE
Building & Automation
Players can stack platforms freely, constructing homes and farms level by level. Solar and wind generators feed farming drones that automate seeding, nurturing and harvesting. Automation reduces manual labor, allowing focus on exploration or community activities.
- Place solar panels on high platforms for maximum exposure.
- Upgrade drone stations before expanding farm size.
04 / THE GUIDE
Gene System
The game lets you reclaim lost technology to modify the genetics of over 30 crops. You can create strains that resist extreme weather or possess novel attributes. Gene editing adds strategic depth, letting you tailor harvests to current environmental conditions.
- Test new gene edits on a small plot before full deployment.
- Focus on resilience traits when storms are frequent.
05 / THE GUIDE
Community & Festivals
Interacting with townsfolk reveals personal storylines and unlocks trust. Seasonal festivals bring decorations, special goods and opportunities to strengthen friendships. These events provide unique crafting recipes and deepen the post‑apocalyptic sanctuary’s atmosphere.
- Attend each festival early to secure limited‑time items.
- Talk to every resident to uncover hidden quests.
