About the Game

Pinevale Settlements is a colony-building simulation that combines production and defense cycles. Start with a small settlement; collect resources, build structures, automate production, develop technology, and keep your colony alive against increasingly powerful raids.

The game has undergone major changes in design and gameplay after the big update. We have a long way to go and will continue to develop constantly. We know we are on a challenging path, and your feedback and reviews are invaluable to us. Please follow and write a review.
