Eldritch Town is a classical city building game at its core. You collect resources, build more buildings, research new technologies and protect it all from monsters that come from the sea and from cultists that try to destroy your town from within. You have various resources to manage - both classical ones like iron, wood, money and population and more unique ones like ammunition and madness. The latter one is a concept from lovecraftian horror worlds - the higher madness your population has the more powerful the cultists become, your people get crazy and kill each other more often, etc.
There are also tower defense elements in Eldritch Town. To protect your town from the deep ones from the sea, you should strengthen your city walls and towers, train soldiers and research powerful combat technologies.

Eldritch Town is a roguelite game. Every run has multiple quests you have to complete to win, but if you can't finish those quests and your city gets destroyed, you don't lose everything. You keep resources and your reputation with different characters. If you've met new characters during the run, you'll be able to start with those new characters in your team in the next run.
