Combat, Main Enemy Types

Floodland has no combat. You are charged with maintaining and growing a peaceful society.

Governance

Floodland places a high degree of game-play on governance. The game features several clans, which all have different and often competing values, along with a law system, that makes decisions impactful.

Land Management

The only form of land management is the fact that there is not a lot of land, the world is flooded and there are tons of islands, you can however destroy buildings and harvest resources that open up more building areas.

Characters leveling, and Tech Tree

As a large society survival type game, you do not manage individual characters. There is a leveling type system (tech tree), a couple actually, one is resources, they are locked behind certain technology, (pretty standard for this genre) and also you will be training your villagers for certain traits, which allow them to then perform special jobs.

Weather Impacts on Gameplay

The weather has no impact on game-play.

Game Modes

Single Player, Follow the Story, Challenge, Struggle, and Prepare to Fail.

Map

The map is randomly generated providing a different experience with every new game.

Over Gameplay Difficulty

The game is not overly difficult, you can fail, and make bad decisions that are hard to work your way out of. This is especially true in the beginning before you get a handle on what you really need to expand.
