Forts is a physics-based real-time strategy debut from EarthWork Games where players construct and defend custom fortresses. Combat demands real-time resource management and structural engineering where gravity dictates the stability of every fortification. Engineers build up tech trees to access heavy artillery while simultaneously repairing damage from incoming enemy fire. The core loop balances rapid base expansion against the kinetic reality of structural collapse.
A 28-mission single-player campaign provides a narrative framework for the mechanics, while competitive multiplayer supports up to eight participants in ranked or casual matches. Strategy hinges on 12 unique commander characters with specialized abilities and a pool of 16 unlockable weapon types. Extensive modding support via the Steam Workshop and an integrated map editor facilitate community-driven content and custom weapon designs. Precise physics calculations transform every strike into a calculated demolition.
