Games Like Bastide

Bastide is a 13th-century city-building strategy game where you lead a village of peasants toward survival and prosperity. You must contend with bandits, starvation, disease, and brutal winters as you work to develop your settlement into a fortified town. Careful and efficient management of your people is essential, as danger can strike at any time.

In Bastide, you can assign your peasants to a wide variety of jobs to gather food, manage resources, and expand your settlement. Beginning with nothing, you gradually develop a small village into a thriving town by using nearby resources to construct buildings and organize labor. Careful job assignments and increased food production are essential to ensuring your people’s survival and continued growth.

Take advantage of the wildlife around your settlement by hunting animals or raising them in pastures. Hunting provides valuable resources such as meat, wool, and hides, which your villagers use for food, clothing, tools, and warmth.

With multiple difficulty settings and the option to disable enemies, players can tailor the experience to be either relaxed or more demanding. The game also includes procedurally generated maps, offering variety between playthroughs.

Developed using Unreal Engine 5.
