About the Game

When Ronan O’Keir’s sister decides to find the author of the letters delivered by the waves in bottles, she turns to others for help. The heroes set out on a rough path to uncover the stranger’s identity.

But the journey proves far more difficult: new lands unmarked on any map, dangers, mysteries, and peoples unknown to the world...

This is a story of letters that bound destinies, of a voyage beyond the horizon, and of new beginnings born from the depths of the world!

New Lands Agency is a time-management game with worker assignment: on each level you quickly gather resources (food, wood, etc.), build and upgrade structures (farm, sawmill, workers’ house), clear obstacles, and manage to complete the objectives for ‘3 stars’ before the timer runs out, using temporary boosts (speed-up, time stop, construction speed-up).

Game Features:

– New heroes: Marin and Aelius. Their meeting will change everything!

– A medieval tale full of secrets, emotions, and fate!

– Discover the Empire of Solestra – an uncharted world at the edge of the map!

– Atmospheric music and stylish visuals – feel the era come alive!

– Explore dozens of unique locations and uncover every hidden mystery!
