About Sky Settlers
Sky Settlers is a minimalist city builder game, where you have different cards that you use to build your sky colony. Each tile has connections to other tiles, that give the player either more or less points depending on what tiles are around that tile. When you have enough points, you can buy new islands to build on. 
After buying an island you will be presented with two quests, one of which you can choose. These quests are given to you as cards and are placed as any other tile. By completing quests you can get points and unlock new cards into your rotation. Those are the basics, although there are a lot more things you will have to discover yourself!

If you're into this kind of game, you will certainly like this one. It's a very chill, cozy tile game. You hop from island to island and each time you enter one, you get to choose a quest card which when fulfilled, will give you either a new higher tier card or a lot of points but coming with a disaster penalty like floods and earthquakes. Picking a quest card is not mandatory but when played well, it will help you along your way. You can also store a couple of cards in your inventory to use them at a more appropriate time. Along your journey, there are a couple of little events too. The achievements are very doable. I've been playing on the Deck with a little bit of tweaking. Especially the ability to zoom in on the card to see the scoring information comes in very handy.1 found this helpful
Literally unplayable for me. I hard freeze the moment I click a card to try to play it. Hopefully it's just secretly in early access or something and the game'll be updated to fix issues like that. But right now, I'm not recommending you waste your money on a game that you might not get to play (obviously) There's plenty of other good games that this is basically ripping off (and hey, fair, that's how game-dev's sometimes)1 found this helpful
A nice, relaxing game but it has some issues that may ruin it for me. When I check the steam overlay, the camera zips away from the island and I can rarely find it again. I wish I could place mission outlines over existing terrain. I wish the music was better. It's a fun game for a few dollars, but leaves some to be desired.1 found this helpful
peaceful and relaxing. doesn't reinvent the wheel but that doesn't matter! would be great if there was a popup / some information for when a run ends / cards can't be played. finicky but i hope this is fixed in a patch. edit 26/2: a new update has fixed this!1 found this helpful
Sure. It is a small game in the style of tile placers, like [i]Dorfromantik[/i]. It works. It has little somethings to make it unique. It is cheap. It got me to spend 20 hours on it.
I bought this game because I tend to like relaxing puzzle games every now and then, like the likes of Pan'orama, dorfromantik, ... However, this game falls short of all of them because there simply isn't enough there. The game is FAR too simple, there's barely any possibility you lose if you know how these games work and you can finish all the content within half an hour. The only reason i played any longer is because there's a leaderboard and the nr 1 spot seemed really easy to get.
