airship city () is a heavier game from Japanese doujin publisher analog lunchbox.
Electing to make a new home among the clouds, humankind has assembled a variety of airships to provide utilities, thereby creating "airship city". As airship engineers, you gather materials and work hard to build airships to further the development of airship city.
In order to build airships efficiently, you need to donate airships to cultivate a positive relationship with the city, renovate your workshop, hire workers, and occasionally piggyback off other engineers to acquire resources. You can contribute to the city's development not only by donating airships, but also by building public facilities and participating in trade.
Will your contributions to the development of airship city earn you fame as an airship engineer?
Airship City is a new metropolis high above the ground. By building massive airships, people have created a new floating utopia. But as a new city, it lacks many resources common to ground-based urban areas. It’s up to the high-flying engineers to create these vital buildings. In the end, one will be hailed as the most honored city-builder of them all.
In Airship City, players take on the role of engineers crafting new airships to add to the city’s infrastructure. They will travel around the tiled grid, collecting resources in order to build the ships back in their warehouse. Once completed, they can be sold for money, which is then used to upgrade their workshops, or donated to the city which create goodwill with the citizens. The engineer with the most victory points at the end of the game is the winner.
