GlagStone

GlagStone is a story-driven 1-bit city builder set on a remote northern island caught between warring nations.You arrive as the new governor. The lighthouse is damaged, the settlement is falling apart, and the previous leader has vanished without a trace. The locals keep their heads down, the sea brings strange wreckage, and every message from the mainland feels more urgent than the last.

Rebuild the island piece by piece

Lay roads, construct houses and production buildings, manage scarce resources, and keep your people alive through shortages, fear, and bad weather.

Weather, night, and the lighthouse

The island is shaped by rain, snow, fog, storms, and darkness. The lighthouse is not just decoration — it helps the settlement survive poor visibility, harsh weather, and the growing sense that something is wrong here.

Make choices under pressure

GlagStone is made with only two colors, but the island’s problems are not always black and white. You will face local disputes, desperate requests, official reports, and choices where there may be no clean answer — only the outcome the settlement can survive.Uncover what really happened here through diaries, letters, incident reports, newspaper notes, and unsettling discoveries. The more you rebuild, the more the island begins to reveal what was buried before you arrived.
