“I will keep building on existing features and implement new ones with the goal to expand the game play experience, add more content and overall make the possibilities in the Archipeo Sandbox more dynamic and open.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

About This Game

Archipeo – Build. Expand. Dominate the Seas.

Shape your own island empire in Archipeo, a retro-inspired city builder and real-time strategy game with MMO-style elements. Starting from a single island in a vast, procedurally generated ocean world, you’ll expand your influence, manage complex economies, and command fleets across a living archipelago.

Inspired by classics like Anno and The Settlers.

Each game takes place in a procedurally generated ocean world, made up of thousands of unique islands. Every island features its own biome, resources, and terrain—forcing you to adapt your strategy as you expand across the seas.

Explore, discover, and reveal new territories. But beware: the world might not be empty.

Construct modular buildings that grow from simple foundations into complex production chains. Optimize your layouts, balance resource flows, and unlock powerful upgrades as your islands evolve.

  • Design interconnected production systems

  • Expand storage and logistics capacities

  • Create specialized island economies

  • Build defenses or weapons of war

At its core, Archipeo is a simulation that runs continuously—whether you’re watching closely or issuing high-level commands.

  • Command units with goal-based tasks like hauling, patrolling, and escorting

  • Engage in tactical combat across land and sea

  • Manage global faction resources and progression

  • Compete or cooperate with up to 16 players

Control ships that transport goods, defend your territory, or project power across distant islands. With large-scale pathfinding and strategic positioning, your fleets become the backbone of your empire.

  • Automate resource hauling between islands

  • Patrol & defend your territories

  • Escort crucial supply ships

Host or join games with up to 16 players in a synchronized persistent world. Explore and play at your own pace. Your empire just keeps going even if you log out.

  • Meet other players by revealing their territory

  • Define pacts between your faction and others

  • Wage large-scale war or automate your defenses

  • Share your resources & claimed territory with alliance members

Experience a charming 2D top-down world inspired by classic 80s game visuals, combined with modern large-scale simulation systems designed for massive maps and long-running games.

Rule YOUR archipelago.
