You are on a little boat full of 100 asylum seekers running from your hometown which is now in the middle of a war, the people range from 3 months to 82 years old when the boat starts to have engine trouble, there isn't enough water to go around so you go above board to look out for any land that is close by, you see a little island in the distant enough to get the boat there to beach it on the little sand beach it had.

You send people out walking along the coast line to find that you are on an island, you must help guide your people to success.

Along the way the player will be given quests to guide them through the essential menu, this menu will include:

  • Help Desk (<- this will be used as FAQ, mechanical and general player help desk)
  • Shelters and Homes
  • Schools
  • Gardens
  • Police Stations
  • Farming*
  • Hunting
  • Fishing
  • Markets
  • Supermarkets
  • Builders
  • Ports/Harbors with ships + shipping containers to transport goods across islands

Everything can be upgraded when it is unlocked per rank, enabling the player to be able to hire more people (add more people to the island) and generate more income (spent at stores and markets therefore getting potentially double back to spend on other buildings, attractions and more).

*There can be 3 types of Farms, The first being a tree type with different fruits, nuts and mainly coconuts, Second being a ground root vegetable garden with potatoes, kumara, taro, silver beet and more and the Third being an animal farm to provide meat to the island and eventually to a store and/or market.

There will be a Tourism Part as well in which certain things will be incorporated to the quests like the Airport, Hotels and Restaurants.

As well as this the other optional things could be Nightclubs, Bars, Mini Golf, Theme Parks, Surfing Lessons and more.

The other types of tourist buildings could be cruise ships, nightclubs/bars, restaurants, motels, hotels, mini gold, theme parks, snorkel/kayak kiosks, merchandise shops, coffee shop, general goods store.

The population on the island also dictates what you can build as you cannot have a restaurant with no one to work in it. Therefore the player must also be mindful of this.

The player will gain XP with each thing they do, after gaining 100XP their Rank will go from 1 to 2, each time after this the 200XP amount doubling as the rank goes up one.

Each time the rank goes up the player will get bonus money, more people added to their population, more types of buildings of both essential and tourism, more tourists and specific upgrades unlocked.

Everything the player has on the island can be upgraded ten times in which increases it each time with income and tourist compatibility, the homes will add more people to the population.

The player can rotate the island by swiping or click and dragging left or right.

Swipe or click and drag up and down to adjust the screen as per aerial or side view of the island.

The player can zoom in and out as per normal touch screen or buttons could be put on the side of the play screen for mouse compatibility.

There will be a menu bar in which shows the play their quests, goals, building and structures, account info and market place options.

There will be 12 surrounding islands that will be unlocked throughout the 120 ranks as the player expands their pacific.

If this was on facebook, and the player had friends playing they can visit them which adds 5 added population to the players island where the XP and money raised for the first 6 hours is doubled, then goes back to normal for the last 6 hours, they will also get a gift for visiting that player in which is randomized so could be something which the player earns hourly XP and/or money or a decoration.
