Kainga

Kainga is a village-building game set in mystical lands inhabited by strange, otherworldly beasts. You lead a tribe as its Thinker, exploring for inspiration and choosing technologies to grow a village that can survive its surroundings and meet each challenge. Runs last 30–90 minutes, and completing challenges unlocks new maps, Thinkers and unusual technologies.

Lead your village

As Thinker, you guide your tribe through trial and error, adapting its village to the environment and protecting the leader at all costs. Each Thinker has distinct strengths, weaknesses and playstyles, so the technologies you choose need to suit your village, surroundings, challenge and approach.

Explore the biomes

The world has eight biomes, each with its own environment and challenges. They include barren deserts, tropical archipelagos, icy mountains, lush jungles and other unusual landscapes. Colossal creatures lurk across these regions, sometimes hidden in the sea or deep underground. You can learn to live alongside them, tame them for your economy or use their strength in combat against rivals.

Learn from each run

When a run ends, you can begin again in a new world. Between games, you use Karma to unlock biomes, technologies and Thinkers. The knowledge you gain about Kainga can improve your chances of success in future runs.
