Overview
TaskTown is a free-to-play idle game from developer NookDuck and publisher NEXTRUNNERS, released on October 28, 2026. The core idea is simple but clever: every click and keystroke you make on your computer is converted into Town Coin, the in-game currency used to rebuild and expand a peaceful town inhabited by animal residents.
It's a desktop companion that rewards your everyday computer use without demanding extra attention.
Highlights
- Idle progression: The town continues to grow even when you're focused on work or study, as residents use their assigned tools to develop the area.
- Casual and family-friendly: With a cute 3D platformer aesthetic and a relaxed pace, it's suitable for players of all ages.
- Free to play: No upfront cost to start building your town, and it supports multiplayer and Family Sharing.
Who It's For
TaskTown is perfect for anyone who spends long hours at a computer and enjoys seeing progress happen in the background. It's also a great choice for families looking for a gentle, non-intrusive game to keep open while doing other tasks.
If you like idle games or desktop companions that blend productivity with play, this one is worth a look.
