Build a lively little city above, by looting mystical caves with a team of gnomes below!

In EcoGnomix you send a team of specialist gnomes on rogue-lite runs into a labyrinth of enchanted caves to bring back resources to expand your village above. Grow your little gnome-topia to let your expedition teams go deeper and deeper into the caves.
 
Pick your team to gather resources, collect supplies, and fight off foes in strategic turn-based gameplay. But be warned with each turn, the cave becomes more and more unstable, and ravenous bats pick away at your dwindling supplies. So decide when it’s time to leave and plan carefully. The deeper you go, the more supplies you’ll need to stay and fight. So balance your resources, adapt your team as you progress through various biomes, combine various upgrades and units to create powerful synergies, and know that no matter how a run ends, you’ll never leave empty-handed.

A free playable Steam demo is available today.

Strategic Rogulite Runs

Progress With Every Run
Venture into the caves knowing each run gets you resources no matter how they end. The deeper you go, the more valuable resources you can gather but no matter the outcome, you won’t return empty-handed.
