The Game at a Glance

What is Brave New Wonders?

Brave New Wonders is an indie post-apocalyptic factory simulation game developed by City From Naught Inc. where physical conveyor belts are replaced by programmable automatons. Players explore a fractured archipelago held aloft by Levitanium, managing industrial expansion through robotic worker units that interpret plain-text commands in any natural language.

A campaign run begins at the Americas train station hub with Pioneer Mira riding a monowheel to gather ore, smelt plates, and configure drone routes. Progression expands through solving ruin trials, erecting automated defenses, excavating the Sky Pillar, and constructing flying airships to connect remote continents across the world.
