EVERDAWN is a peaceful strategy and puzzle game where you place tiles to shape ever-growing, enchanting landscapes. Step into a serene world where nature flourishes, and take a quiet moment to unwind and build at your own pace.

Made by a lone developper, EVERDAWN is a unique mix of strategy and puzzle with a peaceful, immersive atmosphere. Shape an ever-expanding world tile by tile in EVERDAWN. Balance aesthetics, logic and score chasing as every placement matters. Whether you’re here to relax or looking for a challenge, create lush forests, harmonious villages or mysterious wilderness, your world, your rhythm, endless possibilities.

Each session begins with a stack of randomly generated tiles. Draw them one by one, rotate them, and connect forests, rivers, villages and more to shape a unique world. Smart placements earn points, unlock new tiles and extend your run. Create clusters and interconnected groups of tiles. The more elaborate your connections, the greater the rewards. Will you seize opportunities as they come, or plan carefully for the long term?

From the very start, take on random quests across three categories:
• Common: easy to complete, perfect for steady progress.
• Rare: more challenging but far more rewarding.
• Wonders: unique objectives granting access to one of 9 powerful Wonders that can radically change your strategy with unique bonuses.

Advance through Adventure mode to unlock new biomes, each changing the appearance and gameplay of your tiles. Create fresh combinations in every run and aim to have as many different biome tiles as possible to earn diversity score.

Find, collect, and choose your Michi, adorable little creatures that inhabit the world and may prove useful during your games.
