Bulwark: Falconeer Chronicles is an open world builder set in a fantastical oceanic world, allowing players to create settlements and fortresses, establish trade routes, and engage in alliances or warfare with other factions. The game is set in the aftermath of a brutal war that left the world almost destroyed and partially covered by the seas.

Starting from a small settlement, you build a massive bulwark capable of withstanding the attacks from enemy factions while exploring a sprawling world in search of valuable resources and knowledge.

The game offers a Freebuild Mode for unlimited building, mechanics inspired by 3D modelling software, and a unique soundtrack. Players can recruit powerful Captains and Commanders to defend their settlements and share their creations with others.
