About these games

KAISERPUNK

Kaiserpunk is a city-building strategy game set in an alternate 20th century, spanning 1918 to 1945 in the so-called Interbellum Era. After the Great War, city-states rise from the ashes and compete for dominance. The player manages their city, drives industrialization, runs production chains and logistics, and builds a military across land, sea and air. They can form alliances or pursue conquest of over 100 regions through open conflict with rivals.

Workers and Resources: Soviet Republic

A city builder in which you turn a poor country into a rich industrial superpower of the Soviet kind. The planned economy gives you control from mining raw materials to manufacturing goods and providing services, and you must handle intricate production chains within a fully simulated global economy. You manage the lives of citizens from education and work to party loyalty and criminal activity. As a non-aligned nation you trade with both the Western and Soviet blocs, using rubles and dollars, while handling more than 30 commodities.

Ostriv

Ostriv is a city-building game in which the player acts as governor of an 18th century Ukrainian town, testing their creativity and management skills. It sets out to push the city-building experience further by adding many possibilities and removing restrictive limits, so towns can grow organically, without grid or angle rules on a three-dimensional landscape. The goal is for what players build to become living, believable communities where real-life problems arise, so the late game stays a challenge. Development is still ongoing and slow, and updates may be far apart.

Captain of Industry

In this strategy simulation you build an industrial empire on a remote island. You mine resources and use excavators to reshape the terrain: mountains can be levelled, valleys filled, and sea areas filled with rock to gain new land. You grow crops on farms, construct factories, lay rail lines and trade with the outside world. Researching more than 100 technologies takes you from metal smelting to nuclear power and spaceflight, while you must control waste, pollution and the health of your population.

Industry Empire

Industry Empire is a simulation and strategy game in which you run an entire industrial empire, from research and mining raw materials to processing them in your own factories and distributing the products. Trucks carry your goods to distant cities, where trade fuels the growth of your locations and the wider region. You buy plots of land suited to your needs and budget and decide the size and shape of each new factory. The game offers over 160 industrial products, dynamic urban growth, luxury furnishings for your private property, and scenarios such as rescuing a region from bankruptcy or modernizing old structures, plus an online leaderboard.

Factory Town

Factory Town is a strategy and simulation game about building a sprawling factory on 3D terrain and automating it with conveyor belts, trains, chutes, pipes and airships. You turn raw materials into a wide selection of food, clothing, tools, books and magical artifacts, then sell them to nearby villages to expand their borders, raise happiness and unlock better technology. Worker units can move goods between production buildings and markets, but as much of the workload as possible has to be automated. With no enemies or starvation, it is a stress-free logistics challenge focused on maximizing production and happiness.
