Build a thriving town on the ocean in this cosy colony sim

HAVENDOCK

You wake up on a tiny island in the middle of the ocean. Your first impulse might be to escape, maybe by crafting a boat. But if you’re playing Havendock, escape is the last thing on your mind. Don’t flee the ocean. Live there by building an entire town on it.

At first Havendock feels a bit like survival game Raft: I’m standing on a few tiny squares of wood with water all around me, and I need to grab floating leaves, wooden planks, and fish from the ocean to use for resources. Unlike Raft, though, my base isn’t moving through the water but anchored to the tiny sandy island I woke up on.
