Command a legion of robots in factory builder Brave New Wonders, launching tomorrow

Brave New Wonders, a factory builder game set in a post-apocalyptic future, is launching tomorrow on September 21, 2026. Players can give direct commands to robots, written in plain English or any supported language. The game emphasizes that robots will execute these commands precisely, highlighting the rule of programming machines to behave as designed.

Rather than manually setting up a supply chain, players can instruct robots to pick up materials from a warehouse and deliver them to a turret. The game identifies key words in commands, such as locations and conditions. However, misdirected robots will face consequences, as they must complete tasks on their own without guidance.

Brave New Wonders is described as "part factory builder, part city builder rising from the ruins," requiring players to mine and refine resources needed to rebuild society. The game allows linking multiple factories and logistics routes, and even copying layouts.

Robots retain their instructions when pasted into new areas, reducing the need for constant micromanagement. However, players must defend bases against old machines, which roam the world, and use dynamite to clear paths to new territories. Brave New Wonders will be available for purchase on Steam starting September 21, 2026, and players can wishlist the game now.
