This clever survival RTS has such a fun and in-depth building system that it's got me making little roofs to keep my soldiers dry when it rains

A wizard and her soldiers standing in front of a castle in Cataclismo.

Here at PC Gamer's office in the city of Bath in the UK, there is only one constant: it is always raining. So when my soldiers in this fantasy realm ask me to build a bit of overhead cover to keep their bowstrings dry and their spirits up while they defend my castle walls, I feel a lot of sympathy for their plight. But what they don't know is, I am a terrible architect. 

I knew this already, of course, because I discovered it last time I went hands on with promising upcoming RTS Cataclismo. Blending elements of strategy and tower defence with a wonderfully robust and clever building system, the game charges you with holding out against monster attacks by crafting your own walls and defences.
