Loca Deserta: Settlers is a free real-time economic strategy (RTS) and space colony builder, heavily inspired by the classic The Settlers III and The Settlers IV. Set in the Loca Deserta universe, it delivers a deep macro-economic management experience for fans of city builders, production-chain strategy games, and space colonisation sims.

Loca Deserta Settlers gameplay: warp base and production chains

🎮 Gameplay & Features

You command a Warp Base dropped into an unclaimed star system. Your goal: build a thriving economic colony by harvesting resources, constructing intricate production chains, expanding territory with Towers, and colonising planets — each offering unique resources and challenges.

This is a true economic strategy for genre enthusiasts:

  • 🏭 Deep production chains — from raw materials to finished goods, Settlers-style
  • 🌍 Planet colonisation — each planet has unique resources and conditions
  • 🗼 Territorial expansion — build Towers to claim more land
  • 🚀 Space Chumaky — manage star-faring haulers running supply routes between planets

Planet names reference real Ukrainian places: Podillia, Zhovti Vody, Kryvbas, and more. The game’s subtitle is a tribute to the Chumaky — Ukrainian ox-cart merchants who once hauled salt and goods across the steppe, reimagined here as star-faring haulers of the future.
