Pan'orama

Pan'orama is a puzzle game tasking us with creating various landscapes, such as picturesque plains, mountain valleys and fantasy towns. It was developed by an indie studio Chicken Launcher and published by Awaken Realms.

Mechanics

Pan'orama makes use of the top-down perspective. The game takes place on maps we create ourselves by arranging hexagonal tiles. Depending on our preferences and needs, each tile may depict a different element of the environment - part of a field, a forest or a building. In order to create a pretty, aesthetic landscape we must think ahead and pay attention to the connections between different pieces of land.

The available missions vary in of the maps' size and our objectives (often requiring us to place elements of the landscape in strictly defined spots). Placing tiles gives us points, which can be exchanged for boosters. These grant additional landscape elements or new buildings. The most important building is the monument, only becoming available after constructing all the other buildings.
