About dotAGE

dotAGE is a turn-based city builder with roguelike mechanics where you try to survive the apocalypse or die trying….literally. The game is developed by a solo developer, Michele Pirovano. You play as a village Elder who had a blurry vision of an apocalyptic future. And it is up to you to guide your village in order to survive the events foretold by your Prophecy.
