What is Edge Islands?

A single-player colony sim and tactical RPG about adventurers settling on a procedurally generated island. You gather resources, build and manage a colony, train heroes, and send parties into dungeons for loot and turn-based battles.

For you if...

+you like building a colony alongside tactical battles
+you enjoy managing adventurers' needs and training their skills
+you prefer procedural islands and dungeons over fixed maps

Not for you if...

−you want combat without colony management between battles
−you prefer real-time battles to turn-based positioning
−you want a finished game rather than Early Access
