Publishing company Hooded Horse has announced its partnership with development team Minakata Dynamics to bring you Whiskerwood. The city builder whose level of detail is rivaled only by its charm.

Take on the role of a mouse Governor who must lead his crew of colonist mice as they build a home on a previously unexplored island. Settle on this uncharted land with limited space and resources. Establish essential services such as waste management and climate control to keep colonists healthy. Cultivate production opportunities based on the resources available.

Early looks at Whiskerwood have highlighted the importance of meeting Mouselow’s Hierarchy of Needs for your citizens while catering to the demands of your oppressive feline overlords. Each mouse in your colony is unique. With attributes that affect their ability to perform tasks and thrive under certain conditions.

As you appease your master, you’ll earn favor that to exchange for luxury goods to improve the quality of life in your colony. Find a balance between the needs of the mice and the desires of the cats. Or form trade routes with rival faction groups and pirate lords to acquire those luxuries in other ways.

We’ve hardly scratched the surface of the many facets of Whiskerwood. For more information on upcoming features and development, follow the publisher Hooded Horse on Twitter, Facebook, or YouTube.

Players can look forward to the early access release of Whiskerwood on PC via Steam soon.
