About ShoreTiles

The light must never go out. In the middle of a cold, endless sea stands a solitary lighthouse. Around it, your island begins to take shape, tile by tile, piece by piece. The sun breaks through the clouds and hope is in the air, but something eerie lurks beneath the surface. ShoreTiles is a strategic building and defense game where strategy, wits and luck all contribute to your island’s ultimate fate. What begins as calm construction by day turns into a desperate fight for survival by night. Build what must protect you: Draw island tiles from an unforgiving deck and place them into your world. There is no undo, only what comes next. Connect matching terrain types, form patterns, and impose order on chaos. Efficient planning rewards you. Hesitation costs you space.But no matter how perfect your island looks… it is never truly safe. Prepare while you still can: Coins are more than progress, they are your only form of control: Raise new Lighthouses to push back the fog Build Settlements, Farms and Walls to bring your island to life and earn gold Establish Military Camps to defend your island from they who lurk below Because when darkness falls, they rise: Creatures emerge from the depths. Twisted forms, neither human nor beast. Silent. Relentless. Drawn to the lights and the lives of those on the shore. Your defense depends entirely on your preparation. Connected military tiles determine how many units stand against them. And sometimes… it won’t be enough. As your island expands, the diversity of its structures and units grows with it. Discover remnants of those who came before you, such as gold chests, relics and more, as well as discovering new building types & combat units through the Progress Map - However, as you progress, the fog may reveal advantages for your battles, but it can also bring new enemies. Features: Atmospheric tile placement centered around vulnerable lighthouses Constant pressure from an unseen threat beneath the waves Strategic combo mechanics with meaningful trade-offs Nightly attacks from eerie deep-sea creatures A fragile balance between expansion, economy, and defense Hidden relics and discoveries with powerful benefits High replayability through randomized tile sequences What ShoreTiles is: A calm yet deeply unsettling gameplay experience Strategic planning under growing pressure A dark coastal atmosphere inspired by the 1960s A constant tension between control and collapse What ShoreTiles is not: Not a cozy builder without consequences Not a safe experience No escape from the night As long as the light burns, you still have a chance. The only question is: For how long?
