Airborne Empire: The New RPG City Builder Dares You to Keep Your Flying City Balanced
Explore the challenges and adventures of managing a floating city in the newly launched RPG city builder, Airborne Empire.
In Airborne Empire, players are tasked with managing resources, defense, and productivity, all while preventing their floating city from tipping. The game, developed by Wandering Band, challenges players to not only eradicate threats like pirates and deliver supplies but also to ensure their city remains perfectly leveled.
Launch Details
Airborne Empire officially launched on Steam today as an early access title, expanding upon the mechanics introduced in its predecessor, Airborne Kingdom. This sequel offers a much larger world to explore, along with new combat features and threats.
Gameplay Dynamics
Maintaining balance in Airborne Empire requires precise planning in building structures to ensure that weight distribution is even. If players neglect this detail, they risk unhappy citizens and even abandonment of the city. The game incorporates lift management, adding another layer of complexity—players must build energy-efficient engines to maintain elevation without exceeding their lifting capabilities.
As players progress, they can utilize small airplanes to collect resources from the ground, enhancing their city-building experience while fending off sky pirates through the use of combat-equipped planes and defensive structures.
For those interested in city-building games that require thoughtful strategy and resource management, Airborne Empire offers a unique balance of casual gameplay with deeper mechanics. Available now on Steam.
