Sea-Glass Shoals · 1–10
Roads and cottages, gardens, the first market, piers and fish huts, land tiles for thin spits, workshops, bridges, lanterns and the first resident with a request.
Fold a harbour town out of a handful of paper tiles.
Every island hands you a few roads, houses, piers and markets. Lay them so every door has a road, every house has happy neighbours and the market really sells something — then a resident knocks with a request and you rethink the plan.

How a harbour comes together
Pick a card. Tap a cell. Watch it fold up.
1 · Roads to every doorEach building has a little doorstep. No road at the door means nobody moves in.
2 · Happy neighboursGardens, trees and decorations beside a house add hearts; smelly fish huts and noisy workshops take them away.
3 · Goods on the roadPiers and boats feed fish huts, gardens grow produce, workshops carve crafts. A market sells whatever reaches its road network.
4 · Houses growAt 4 hearts a cottage grows a floor, at 7 it becomes a grand house with four residents.
The rules fit on a postcard
House: +1 with a road at the door, +1 per green or decorated neighbour, −1 per noisy neighbour, +1 for each lantern around it.
Market: +1 per goods type on its roads — fish, produce, crafts — and every house within 4 road steps shares the bonus.
Fish hut: one fish for every pier beside it; a lighthouse nearby adds one more.
Workshop: one craft for every tree beside it. A warehouse collects from producers that have no road.
Stars: meet the goals for one star, build a happier town for two and three. Nothing is random — the same layout always scores the same.
Undo, redo, rotate, pick up and an “insight” view are always one tap away. No timers, no fail screens.
Residents have opinions
“Could you keep the net-drying green free?”
Halfway through an island a fisher, a keeper or old Joss drops by with a wish: link grandfather's pier to the market, put a lantern by the stalls, keep two cells open for the spring nets. Requests come with gift tiles — and often mean picking up something you already built.
The paper sea
30 islands in 3 archipelagos
Kraftwind Isles · 11–20
An old town hall that makes its road network proud, wells for thirsty gardens, a lighthouse for the fleet, plazas, boulders and a lagoon ring.
Lantern Reach · 21–30
Warehouses, salt marshes to rebuild tile by tile, a causeway of four islets, two-market islands and the paper capital with everything at once.

Free build
Your own island, no goals, no limits
Choose one of three blank islands and build with every tile you have met in the campaign — unlimited. Name your towns, keep up to twelve of them and reopen them any time. Campaign islands are saved too: come back to an old island and improve it for another star.
How harbour coins work
- You earn 10 coins for each star the first time you earn it — replays never pay twice.
- Coins buy six decorations for free build (planters, flower beds, crates, bunting, a fountain, an anchor statue).
- Coins cannot be bought, sold or exchanged, and nothing in the game is random.
