One More Island -

The Queen of the Old World calls upon you! As Her Majesty's domain expands, we require a capable administrator to guide Her latest colonies to prosperity. We will provide you with ships, colonists, and other tools necessary to tame these wild, virgin lands, and turn them into a prosperous colonial enterprise, all under the Queen's watchful eye. Naturally, the Crown will expect you to share the bounty of these new lands, pay your taxes on time, and continue expanding the boundaries of Her Majesty¿s colonial possessions. Obedience may earn you rewards,but refusing to pay your dues or worse, declaring independence, will have dire consequences. So, governor. Are you ready to colonize One More Island? You are called upon to explore the frontiers of Her Majesty¿s colonial empire, claim territory, then exploit it to its fullest to gain riches for the throne! Set sail for the New World to plant Her flag and establish a new colony - as well as ensuring it thrives. Each exploration is never the same, thanks to a world map generated dynamically from a combination of hand-crafted map elements. Customize the challenge to your tastes, adjusting island size, land fertility, amount of natural resources and more, to make it as easy or as hard as desired. As governor, you're in charge.
