  • I adore Islanders, a little minimalist city builder recently released on steam. Here's my strategy for getting high scores out of your island, intended for newer players or people trying to level up their game and compete for high scores. This was filmed a couple days back so it doesn't cover the expansion content, but most of the same ideas should apply.
    I was briefly #6 on the global leaderboards before better players finished their 40-hour high score runs, and yes I still talk about it. Still top 50 so don't @ me.

    very helpful.
    i thought i was doing good making scores of less than 1000 on the first island. after this video though on my first try i made 3700! those buildings were stuffed in there like sardines and i was placing them much better.

      Awesome! The update added a few new starter island generation types, and combined with the new buildings you can get some seriously high scores on even the first island. Thanks for the comment!

    Amazing video! I’ve been playing this game for a while now and mostly for fun, but recently I became very curious about any strategies or how to get better at this game in general, and found your channel. This has helped me a lot, and I found a new appreciation for this game through your videos. Thank you :D

    I had just heard about Islanders, and was curious about gameplay. This was an excellent example, and a great primer on gameplay mechanics for one who has never played.

    @Conner Brilliant guide. I was looking for something like this to outline the non-obvious interactions between buildings and finally found your post on Reddit. Nice to see a bit more of a strategy focus in Islanders. Subscribing in case you do another in the future.

      Thank you, I'm going to record more islanders for sure. The new buildings are pretty exciting!

    Oh thank you. I also love the game, but I usually play trying to avoid red numbers so I never get real far with buildings. I understood much more now, very nice video :)

    Shouldn’t it be 2600+ points?

    • @TheConnorRoberson
      @TheConnorRoberson  Před 5 lety

      Also accurate! Although after the expansion changes, a score of 3500+ is a better goal!

    I've been playing this game so much recently that it's really frustrating that I'm not controlling the camera.
