Beyond the Pier

Explore a New World
Set sail across a vast procedurally generated ocean where every voyage uncovers new islands, valuable resources and unexpected encounters.
Race to claim new territories before rival powers do and shape the future of your growing colonial empire.
Command Your Expedition
Recruit officers, assemble your crew and command every expedition across dangerous seas. Your crew's morale, loyalty and reputation influence every voyage.
Choose your own path. Trade, negotiate, plunder enemy ships or become a feared privateer. But remember...
Rumors travel faster than ships.
At sea, your actions belong to your crew. In port, they belong to everyone. Stories spread across the New World, shaping how settlements, governors and rival factions perceive you. Your reputation influences trade, diplomacy, recruitment and far more than you might expect.
Master a Living Economy
Every colony becomes part of a complex production network.
Extract natural resources, transform them into valuable goods and supply distant settlements through expanding maritime trade routes.
Manage more than 50 resources and 20 interconnected production chains, where every product must be produced, transported and traded. Markets evolve dynamically according to supply, demand and world events.
Colonize and Govern
Discover fertile islands and establish thriving settlements across the archipelago.
Appoint governors to manage your colonies while you continue exploring the frontier. Set strategic priorities...
...or deal with ambitious governors who sometimes decide to pursue their own agenda.
Navigate Politics and War
Trade with established ports and forge relationships with four competing factions.
Unlock diplomatic agreements, loans, military support and strategic alliances.
When diplomacy fails, engage enemy fleets, raid merchant convoys and fight for control of the seas.
Every victory, every defeat and every decision leaves lasting consequences.

Every Expedition Tells a Different Story
Customize your experience with procedural world generation, random events and extensive gameplay settings.
No two expeditions, colonies or empires will ever unfold the same way.
