About the Game

Engage your crew and captain in turn-based tactical skirmishes against the Governor’s fleet. Push enemies overboard to swiftly get rid of them. Use on-deck weapons and tools to damage ship and crew alike. Align your ship to take the winning edge on your opponent.

Master simple but complementary attack, skills and move patterns, improve your lethality… Chain movements, pushes and attacks to overcome powerful enemies. Maneuver your ship to create covers, lines of fire and dead zones. Unravel intricate, bold and sometimes absurd tactics in a few turns.

After battles, revive fallen crew members and cumulate skills. Revive the Governor’s mightiest soldiers, enroll them onto your crew. Mutate crew members to grant them monstrous abilities. Combine captain-based abilities, either in temples… or death.

Arpelagos’ islands were hurled in the sky by a mysterious storm, its winds only offer a single cycling direction. Plan your most profitable, or survivable path between numerous air routes. Explore islands on your way, and visit them again during the next cycles. Evade the Governor’s relentless fleet with bold ambushes and cunning escapes.

Arpelagos is composed of many islands, each with their own trades and opportunities. Recruit the locals, restore your ship, each island has its own specialty. Establish hideouts granting powerful support and upgrade them for your next visit. Raid the local Governor’s facilities for gold, oxygen, materials and more.
