ISLANDERS

ISLANDERS is a minimalist city-building puzzle where you place buildings on small, procedurally generated islands. The aim is to shape each settlement while making placements that score well. Buildings earn points based on nearby structures and features of the landscape. You begin with a limited selection; scoring enough points replenishes or unlocks building packs, while falling short can end a run. In the high-score mode, reaching the required score lets you move on to another island and continue the run. A sandbox mode offers a more open way to build without pursuing the same score-based progression.

Place buildings for points on procedurally generated islands, plan around their surroundings, and earn your way to the next shore.
