The game

Havenor is a city building and trading game in the classic isometric view, made for touch. Explore the islands with your ship and find fertile land. A trading post founds your first settlement, market halls grow your territory. Lay roads, place fields and pastures and build houses for your people.

Every island has its own climate, and not everything grows everywhere. What you lack, you bring from a second island or buy. Keep an eye on stock and balance, because every building costs upkeep.

Five population tiers

  1. Pioneers
  2. Settlers
  3. Citizens
  4. Merchants
  5. Aristocrats

What awaits you

Settle and expand

A trading post on the coast is the start. Market halls push your borders inland, roads connect your farms and workshops.

From hut to cathedral

Meet the needs of your people and their houses advance. Every tier unlocks new buildings, up to the palace and the cathedral.

Trade at sea

Set up trade routes between your islands and trade with the free trader, with natives and with your rivals.

Rivals and pirates

Up to three computer opponents build their own settlements. Make treaties, pay tribute or defend yourself with towers and warships.

Wind and weather

The wind turns and changes its strength. With the wind behind them your ships are fast, against it they make slow progress.

Petitions and contracts

Your citizens come with wishes, villages ask for goods. Hear them out, decide, and earn their trust and their gold.

The daily island

Every day brings a new island, the same for all players. 60 minutes of game time, one Game Center leaderboard.

Photo mode and widget

Hide the controls, pick a look like miniature or sunset and share the picture. The widget shows your town on the home screen.

Production chains

Sheep become cloth, ore becomes tools, grain becomes bread. Every chain needs workers, roads and room to grow.
