About This Game

Scorchlands is a chill yet strategic city-building game where you expand, optimize, and shape a volcanic moon at your own pace.

Why you’ll love Scorchlands:

🏡 Cozy, hex-based colony-building – Place buildings and optimize your cities without stress.

🔗 Deep but accessible resource management – Move resources between colonies, balance production, and create an efficient supply network.

🌍 Terraforming for growth – Shape the environment to unlock new resources and opportunities.

🧩 Tactical puzzle-like combat – Outsmart enemies with positioning and strategy, no micromanagement needed.

🔬 Tech progression that fuels creativity – Unlock new tools that let you play the way you want.

The birdfolk of Giwi are explorers, inventors, and pioneers, and now they’re taking their knowledge beyond their homeworld. Their destination? Helia - a volcanic moon full of uncharted wonders, untapped resources, and… unexpected dangers.

To thrive on Helia, you’ll need to establish colonies, build up production chains, and master resource logistics. Move materials between settlements, carefully balance supply and demand, and keep your industries running smoothly. All without the usual stress of city-builders.

But exploration comes with risks—strange creatures lurk across the landscape, and the only way to survive is through smart positioning and careful expansion.

Whether you love relaxing city-builders, satisfying logistics puzzles, or strategic exploration, Scorchlands lets you play at your own pace. No timers, no pressure—just you, your colony, and endless possibilities.
