Core Loop: Clear forests, gather resources (wood, food, stone, and gold), recruit villagers from the town hall, and construct various buildings.
Building & Placement: Place building cards (such as houses, lumber mills, farms, windmills, and mines) next to compatible neighbors to trigger bonus efficiencies.
Objectives: Fulfill merchant orders, unearth hidden relics, and construct a ship on the beach tile to sail away to the next unique island environment. Each island features specific goals to earn up to three stars.
