From Press Release:
London, UK – 14 September 2026: Independent developer Nementic Games and publisher Curve Games today announced that Cloudscrapers, the cozy, minimalist tower-building strategy game, is out now on Steam.
Build upwards, push further with every attempt, and see just how high you can go.
In Cloudscrapers, players construct increasingly ambitious towers stretching high above the clouds, balancing resources, surviving the elements, and unlocking new tools and permanent upgrades along the way. Each new run is an opportunity to build bigger, climb higher, and discover more of the mysterious hand-painted fantasy world.
Designed to deliver satisfying strategy without demanding dozens of hours, Cloudscrapers offers a deliberately accessible, bite-sized experience built around a relaxing pace, simple-to-understand systems, and rewarding long-term progression.
Across a variety of beautiful hand-painted biomes, players will need to decide how best to use the resources available to them as their tower grows ever higher. New tools and permanent upgrades open up fresh possibilities between runs, while an original fantasy story gradually reveals strange secrets about why you’re building in the first place and what mysteries await you in the skies.
The journey is accompanied by an original soundtrack featuring vocals from Mariya Anastasova, whose credits include Down by the River from Baldur’s Gate 3.
Cloudscrapers also launches with full controller support and Steam Deck Verification, making its relaxed, compact strategy experience equally suited to building at a desk, on the sofa, or on the move.
“Cloudscrapers has been nearly two years in the making, so seeing it finally in players’ hands is incredibly exciting for us,” said Sebastian Jantschke, Lead Game Designer at Nementic Games. “We wanted to make a strategy game that gives players the satisfaction of building, experimenting, and progressing without becoming overwhelming. We can’t wait to see how high everyone manages to climb.”
