The player takes hold of a settlement placed atop a floating island within a vast expanse of clouds. As beautiful as the scenery may look, a barbarian horde forges their way through the clouds on a warpath to destroy your settlement and seize the natural resources of the island for themselves. You must seek out the resources atop the island to fund your expansion and economy. Maintain your defence from the barbarian onslaught. The game utilises tower defence mechanics with elements of real-time strategy, offering a unique play experience. There are four different island maps each containing their own individual layout, climate, difficulty, and procedurally generated environment. The player must think of new strategies and tactics with each playthrough. Source: The Game Website/ Press Kit.
