About Towers of Aghasba
Decades after the Shimu were forced from their homeland by the Withered, they return to the island of Aghasba as junior architects. Players explore a vibrant open world, rebuild villages, and nurture strange ecosystems while confronting lingering Withered threats.
The experience blends solo sandbox creativity with a prototype co‑op mode for up to four players. Each participant keeps a personal island, shares resources, and contributes to collective progress without any player‑versus‑player conflict.
01 / THE GUIDE
Exploration of Aghasba
The island offers varied terrain, colossal mountains, and grand valleys rendered in a high‑fidelity art style. Gliding between locations reveals jaw‑dropping vistas that emphasize the world’s scale.
During travel you encounter memorable creatures and uncover fragments of Shimu history, providing context for the Withered’s dark origins and enriching the sense of place.
- Pause at high points to take in the visual detail; the art style rewards careful observation.
- Watch creature behavior for hints about hidden paths or points of interest.
02 / THE GUIDE
Building Shimu Villages
As a junior architect you can construct sprawling settlements that become inhabited by members of the Shimu tribe. The sandbox lets you arrange structures and add decorations to reflect your vision.
Once built, villages animate as they are populated, turning creative layouts into functional communities within the game world.
- Experiment with different decorative elements to see how they alter the village’s appearance.
- Plan settlement layouts before placing structures to keep a cohesive design.

Restoring Aghasba’s Ecosystems
The island’s ecosystems have been devastated, but you can nurture plant life, attract animals, and work with the gods of Aghasba to revitalize the environment. Each restored flora and fauna adds to a bizarre yet thriving landscape.
Growth is gradual, encouraging you to monitor and support natural cycles that gradually bring the land back to health.
- Plant a variety of flora to attract diverse animal species.
- Check in regularly to observe how ecosystems respond to your interventions.
04 / THE GUIDE
Braving the Withered Lands
Much of Aghasba remains infested with the Withered, a dark force that absorbs life. You can craft weapons, armor, and elixirs before venturing into these zones.
Combat involves battling bloodthirsty Withered monsters, gradually clearing the plague and making more of the island safe for settlement and growth.
- Prepare a balanced set of gear and consumables before entering Withered zones.
- Observe monster patterns to choose optimal moments for attack.
05 / THE GUIDE
Co‑op Multiplayer Experience
Up to four players can join a cooperative session where each maintains a personal island. Shared activities include building, decorating, battling the Withered, and cultivating ecosystems.
Items and amity earned together transfer back to each player’s own island, though quest and story progression currently applies only to the host.
- Coordinate resource gathering to maximize shared benefits.
- Focus on cooperative combat to clear Withered areas more efficiently.
