About the game
IsleFolk is a laidback island colony builder where you start with a single worker on an island surrounded by ocean. Assign jobs to your villagers such as chop trees, mine stone or plant crops, and slowly transform your island into a thriving settlement.
Build and Expand
Place structures, till the soil, and push back the ocean itself by laying new land tiles one at a time. Every corner of your island can be shaped to your vision, from dense forests to sprawling farms and bustling workshops.
A Living World
Watch your workers go about their days; harvesting resources, hauling goods to storage, tending crops, and heading into the mines. They rest only when you allow them to, and if you leave them unattended too long, hostile creatures may knock one out cold. No harm done, just a worker waiting for you to shake them awake and get things moving again.
Trade and Prosper
A mysterious merchant sails to your dock at regular intervals, offering rare goods, powerful blueprints, and exotic trades. Build a reputation through fair dealing and generous trades. Earn the merchant's trust and he may bring you something far more valuable than resources.
Craft and Process
Raw materials are just the beginning. Smelt ore in the furnace, burn waste in the trash burner, and unlock advanced crafting chains that turn humble logs and stones into the foundations of an advanced colony.
Grow Your Colony
New workers join your island as your reputation grows. Upgrade their capabilities with tools and at the obelisk, send them into the mines, assign them to farms, or let them do whatever they please.
Discover and Unlock
Blueprints unlock new structures. New structures unlock new possibilities. The merchant holds knowledge you haven't found yet.
