''Islanders'' is a casual strategy/simulation hybrid game developed and published by Grizzly Studios and first released for UsefulNotes/{{Steam}} on April 4, 2019. The game is a variation of the typical city-building simulation game with a causally-oriented form of gameplay. The player begins on several islands of various themes and has to place buildings down on the islands in an order that would get the fastest city growth. Points come from placing building or structures together that are relevant to each other. The game ends if the player runs out of buildings or space to build more before unlocking more islands.

The game would later release on consoles with the moniker ''Islanders: Console Edition''. The first console release would be on UsefulNotes/NintendoSwitch on August 11, 2021.
