Archipelago Voyage: Routes & Conquest

Start with a supply ship. Build the economy that keeps your fleet afloat, protect the ports that sustain it, and fight for control of the archipelago. In Archipelago Voyage: Routes & Conquest, every new island changes your next decision: collect its resources, establish an outpost, reinforce your defenses, or invest in the ships that will carry the next battle. Turn island resources into a working economy Send transport ships to collect wood, stone, and iron. Establish your home island, build a market and shipyard, and turn iron into steel in your foundries. Expand with radar, claim resource islands for regular income, and sell surplus goods to fund your next move. Keep the harbor cities standing Some story missions put a civilian harbor city at the center of the battle. Send transports to bring its gold back to your home island while your warships hold off incoming enemies. A lost city means a failed expedition, so protecting the port matters as much as winning at sea. Command a fleet with distinct roles Use ironclads to take the front line, battleships to deliver sustained gunfire, and missile ships to strike with heavy damage. Select ships individually or move a fleet together, defend your transport routes against pirates, and take the fight to rival islands. Seawalls and coastal guns help hold the islands you have worked to develop. Choose your path through the technology tree Earn stars by completing levels and spend them on shipping, fleet, defense, and research technologies. Unlock new options and improve cargo capacity, hull strength, firepower, and production. In each expedition, build a research institute and invest local resources in further upgrades. Reset your global technology choices from the main menu to try another approach. Reopen the routes through a story campaign Four guided tutorial levels introduce construction, gathering, pirates, fleet defense, and conquest. Then take on the ten missions of the first story chapter. As the new commander of a civilian supply fleet, restore the islands' connections, defend their cities, and uncover the blockade tied to your father's missing convoy.
