Love Townsmen? Even if you don’t – many people do, as it’s one of those award-winning titles. Apparently, Townsmen 5 was such a success that Glu and Handy Games decided it’s about time to start preparing for the 6th sequel.

According to PocketGamer which got the scoop from Glu, Townsmen 6 will place you in the role of a freedom fighter during the French Revolution. The game will feature new buildings, improved graphics, an isometric perspective, special effects, and a new mini-game. In addition, we should expect a new control scheme that will reportedly make gameplay even more accessible, taking advantage of modern handset hardware such as accelerometers and touchscreens…

And that’s about all we know at this stage. No exact release date was given and we also don’t have a single screenshot. Unfortunately, the image above is from Townsmen 5…
