Hoverwick: Village in the Sky

A village on your desktop

Hoverwick: Village in the Sky is a village-building game for PC, set on a medieval island that floats in a corner of your desktop. You place houses, workshops and fields, then manage production as grain goes to the mill and flour to the bakery. The village keeps working while the game is closed, and you can switch between the island and the programs underneath it with a click.

The island can sit anywhere on your screen, and a shortcut tucks it into a small bubble. Clicks beside it pass through to the window below. On Windows, it moves behind full-screen games and films automatically. You can also play in a regular window or full screen.
