About these games

These Doomed Isles

These Doomed Isles is a survival city-builder with roguelike deckbuilding, played in strategic runs. You harvest cards to raise land from the sea, build settlements for your followers and strike down waves of invaders with god powers such as meteors or storms. Choose one of four gods, each with unique cards, playstyle and abilities, and grow your settlement into a sprawling island chain of farms, industry and fortifications. With over 300 cards, more than 20 enemies, 12 bosses, 15 ascension levels and over 30 relics and curses, every run plays out differently.

Vertical Kingdom

Vertical Kingdom takes place in a world devastated by a war that lasted an entire generation. The once mighty Empire lies in ruins, and the player, as the Great Architect, must rebuild it brick by brick. Expeditions are randomized: cities are raised with cards while resources such as food, water, bricks, wood, stone and metal are managed. Building goes only upwards, and every structure is permanent, so each card played and each decision carries consequences.

Super Fantasy Kingdom

A roguelite city builder in which you come back from a hunting trip to find your lands in ruin and must rebuild your kingdom while holding its gates against nightly monster raids. Ever more vicious hordes pour out of the darkness each night, stopped only by the warriors, mighty creatures and magical beings you have recruited; should the city fall, a new run starts and you carry forward rewards such as more heroes and lands already uncovered. Each run is led by a different guardian with their own strengths, and you meet over 50 units to hire while deciding where to place buildings and which resources to prioritize, as locations and their availability vary every time.

EcoGnomix

The game blends roguelite elements with city building. Above, you grow a lively little town, while below, a team of gnomes explores mystical caves and gathers loot. Repeated runs unlock upgrades and abilities that help the gnomes push deeper into the perilous underground.

Border Pioneer

Border Pioneer is a pixel art city-building game that blends survival and defense elements. As the kingdom’s most promising pioneer you set out into the frontier, facing local dangers, managing resources and raising settlements from basic structures to gradually unlocked buildings and units. You put together a deck from over 200 unique cards and play them with skill and timing. At the end of each month enemies try to destroy the town, so you fortify its defenses and repel ever more powerful waves of attackers.

The King is Watching

The King is Watching is a roguelite kingdom builder in which you rule through your royal gaze: subjects work only while you watch them. You choose between producing resources, training armies, or balancing both, and each run brings its own events. Water, wheat, stone, coal and silver are used in farms, mines and workshops, and the castle must be repaired after enemy attacks. Permanent upgrades from earlier attempts unlock new abilities, while enemies led by unexpected Generals call for different tactics.
