I can't find a game i download can you help with the game title?

Playing in android. I would call it a city builder and clicker

The map is hex units You buy hexes one at a time

You can send anything you have to city At first you send trees to city Once you have enough money you can build sawmill and send logs to city , then planks etc.

Tasks are part of the gameplay. they give you rewards of gold and diamonds

The map unlocks areas so you can't see the whole map at first Production chains have trees to planks And fish to sushi And metal but I can't remember the chain

There are quest that look like a tinker's cart for gold

The object is to build the rocket.

That's when you get a new city to build

No other players to compete against

A little bit puzzle like because street can only be straight.

So you might have to take a turn at a warehouse to get product to launch pad

Sound familiar to anyone?

What's wrong with 'grid-based' city builders?

Ever since Manor Lords launched there's been a divide. I get it though, a new mechanic that's a breath of fresh air as well as unleashing player's creativity and aesthetics.

But this free flowing type of building shouldn't diminish or supersede grid builders. There's a reason why most of the popular city/base builders are grid-based; because it works!

There's even an extreme example I saw where this player will "never go back to grid builders"

City Builder Beginner Recommendation

Hey people,

I want to get a bit into city builders. I'm looking for a chill game where you can build you settlement and see it develop. The only one I tried so far is Against the Storm. Loved the artstyle but the Roguelite Aspects I found a bit too stressful. Especially racing against the clock all the time. Also games with a modern setting I think I don't want for now.

I think I want a gridless building game. Hence I read a bit about Manor Lords and Ostriv. Which one of the two you would recommend to start out with? Any other similar games?

Thanks in advance.

You should check out Dawnmaker

(This is not self-promotion, I am not affiliated with the company, I just think this is an awesome game!)

Dawnmaker is a clever solarpunk, base builder, deck builder, turn-based strategy mashup that deserves a lot more attention IMO. Here's the Steam link, there's a demo available.

Here's why I like it:

  • The mechanics are weird, in a good way. You have your usual hand of cards that provide resources. Then, you draft another deck of buildings throughout the level. The buildings have special abilities and shuffle new, powerful cards into your resource deck. It feels messy initially but then it suddenly "clicks" and the game truly shines. There's a bunch of diverse builds and they feel very different to play.
  • The theme is incredible. Solarpunk is the younger sister of cyberpunk and steampunk. It is hopeful, brave, and willing to roll up its sleeves and work for a better future. It's nice to play a game with light, pleasant colors, and optimistic design. It also ties to mechanics well, there is no "opponent", instead there's a smog mechanic that slowly gets stronger. When you upgrade your lighthouse (your main building) the smog resets, so there's a push-your-luck mechanic that is really interesting.
  • The team is awesome. There's two people working on the game and they're the real deal, a couple of indie devs trying to make something cool. They released a content patch a few weeks after the launch, and I can't wait to see more of their work.

Thanks for reading :) I hope you give Dawnmaker a try!

Citybuilder that is mainly about building and somewhat about relations to other cities?

Think a mix of Cities Skylines and Civ 6, as in it’s mainly building a city but you can also fight against others, but that that is completely optional and not really profitable in most scenarios, where usually the only interactions with other cities is trading and stuff. (It doesn’t have to be cities, it can be medieval times)

Old school city builder on pc

I don't remember much about the game to be honest i was a really young kid and my dad showed me it but i do remember they had neolithic clothing. Im not sure if that was the time period or just the clothing choice i also know that it had a character system where you could look at your different settlers kind of like oxygen not included. I dont think it was as in depth you had almost a top down veiw and could watch your settlers doing tasks and the art style was semi cartoonish with semi low polly characters if you zoomed in. i also think the characters were in a vally of sorts and there was an opening scene of sorts and there was a person in the neolithic clothing in it. I know how vauge this is and im not really expecting much but its been like an itch in the back of my brain i just need to scratch ive done a good amount of research and havent come up with anything so any input would be amazing even just reaching out saying you know what im talking about and im not just crazy lol thank you for your time. ps: sorry for any grammer or punctation mistakes

A city-building strategy in the best traditions of horror and darkness inspired by H.P. Lovecraft is now available on Steam. For our small indie team, who dedicated several years to its development and service to the cult, this is a truly exciting moment.

Skypunk City Builder with Airships?

Hi, I've been doing some light searching, but I'm looking for a city-builder/4X/strategy game that involves something in the vein of clifftop/mountaintop cities with Final Fantasy style airships or the like. I've played Airborne Kingdom and Clifftop Empire, but was wondering if there was something more Anno with Airships (I know 1800 has some light DLC sorta in that vein, but I was looking for something deeper.)

If anyone has any recommendations it's greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.

Would love a recommendation - I played anno 1800 tons but I'm done with it. Not familiar much with the genre otherwise.

I like to go hiking.

As we continue our work on Kaiserpunk, today we have a small video of coastal part of the city and how it looks like when you have your fisheries, naval bases, shipyards, docks all in one place. Hopefully animations are interesting to look at, what do you think?
