Pioneers Of Pagonia is a city-builder that is all about exploration, discovery, and reuniting the fantastical islands of Pagonia.

In a world of countless islands populated with scattered villages, you travel and lead your people as a visionary to forge alliances with the inhabitants, after helping each other and gaining their trust. Send out your pioneers to discover untouched soil, find hidden resources and explore secret places.

Enjoy the fantastical and inviting world of Pagonia, where your carefully considered decisions cause thousands of bustling inhabitants to satisfy your orders. Every transport of goods, manufacturing process and discovery your people make is comprehensible and presented with lovely animations in this ultimate game world simulation.

Use your creativity to build up your road network and economy, which offers an enormous depth of play with over 40 building types, more than 70 different goods and widely branched production chains. Protect your population from hostile animals, plundering bandits and mythical creatures. Explore the infinite variations of the procedurally generated maps, which offer new challenges every time.

German indie studio Envision Entertainment announced that Pioneers Of Pagonia Steam Early Access at 29.99 EUR / 29.99 USD / 26.99 GBP in 17 languages.

The Early Access build contains over 40 building types and over 70 different goods with branching production chains to build up settlements. All goods, transports, production processes, and discoveries of the population are presented through beautiful animations and can be followed from start to finish, making Pioneers of Pagonia accessible for all age groups.

Each of the four enemy types available in the Early Access build can be countered with different strategies and units. Additional enemies and units will be added during the Early Access period.

The Envision Entertainment team paid particular attention to the map generator. All settings can be changed in detail, from the size of the island to the prevailing landscape, the number and difficulty of the enemies, and the tasks to be completed. From relaxed, peaceful pioneering to extreme challenges, every level of difficulty is possible and can be set individually at the start of each new map. Thanks to the procedurally generated maps, countless variations and hundreds of hours of fun are possible. If a player likes a particular island, they can share it with the community using the unique map ID.

Further game content is planned at regular intervals throughout the Early Access period. Three major updates will arrive over the next few months,  including a shared co-op mode, extended production statistics, underground mining, and the fishing hut, one of the most requested buildings from the community. 
 
"We have been working towards this day for around two years! The whole team is eagerly awaiting feedback from the community on the Early Access release, as enormous progress has been made since the public demo in October," says Volker Wertich, Creative Director at Envision Entertainment. "Early Access is an important milestone for our project, but also the start of a new journey. We are already working on further game content and improvements and still have many ideas and plans. Therefore, we have deliberately not set a date for the final release yet, as we want to work with our community to develop the exact game they want."

Key Features:

  • A deep economic system with over 40 buildings and 70 wares, including unique units such as the haven
  • Deep infrastructure mechanics including building roads, store hubs, and organizing long-distance transportation
  • A fabulous medieval game world that differs from many contemporaries
  • An emphasis on unification rather than war, which leads to unique endgame goals
  • Procedurally generated maps, allowing for endless gameplay opportunities

Pioneers Of Pagonia is in development for PC (Steam), scheduled for 2024.
