Even at this early stage of development, Towns is a lot of fun. The game borrows elements from Dwarf Fortress, but presents them in an accessible format thanks to a friendly user interface and warm graphics.

Towns will soon incorporate elements of another notable game, Majesty, by adding heroes. Having played Towns as it is today, I know that their inclusion will really lend some diversity to the gameplay. Currently, Towns offers the fun of building a productive town and fending off monsters. The inclusions of heroes will further add diversity to the town society, and create an item-based economy.

Given that the game is already fun, and the planned updates provide interesting new content and gameplay, I can't imagine Towns being anything less than a hit.
