What it's about

Soar across a topographical map in airships to share wonders with tourists. In Braided Skies, you take on the role of an airship captain in the Shallows, seeking to build the greatest magical travel company in the Northlands. Your mission involves exploring land and sky for new wonders, upgrading your travel company operations, and picking up tourists—all while maintaining a steady supply of tapstones, the magical gems that fuel the Northlands. Gather the most fame to be the most successful Commodore of the Clouds! This is the first in a series of game set in the Smoking Bones universe created and illustrated by Andrew Bosley (Everdell, Tapestry, etc). Set sail on airborne drop ships to shepherd tourists and harvest tapstones from locations on an unlockable topographical map. Experience a strong sense of progression by adding outposts, crewmates, and harvesters, plus outfittings for powerful recall turns. Discover magical Wonders for instant benefits, track advancements, and ongoing upgrades.
