About the Game

Archipeo – Build. Expand. Dominate the Seas.

Shape your own island empire in Archipeo, a retro-inspired city builder and real-time strategy game. Starting from a single island in a vast, procedurally generated ocean world, you’ll build sprawling cities, automate resource hauling, and command fleets to prove your influence across a living archipelago.

Inspired by classics like Anno and The Settlers.

Procedural islands & exotic biomes.

Each game takes place in a procedurally generated ocean world, made up of thousands of unique islands. Every island features its own biome, resources, and terrain—forcing you to adapt your strategy as you expand across the seas.

Explore, discover, and reveal new territories. But beware: the world might not be empty.

Colonize islands, construct buildings & automate resources.
