## What is Tidewater?

Grandpa left you an old wooden pier, a little fish market and one fishing boat. Turn them into the busiest port in the world!

Tidewater is a relaxing idle tycoon set in a gorgeous 3D bay. Everything you build is right there, working: ships sail in and moor, cranes swing the cargo ashore, trucks carry it away, and the town on the hill grows with your port. It earns by the second, even while the game is closed.

SEVEN TERMINALS TO BUILD
• The Old Pier, where it all began
• The Freight Wharf for coasters and pallets
• The Container Terminal with giant ship-to-shore cranes
• The Bulk Terminal with grain unloaders and silos
• The Oil & Gas Jetty and its tank farm
• The Cruise Terminal, full of happy guests
• The Mega Hub, an island port for the biggest ships afloat

UPGRADE SHIPS, CRANES & TRUCKS
Every terminal is a chain of three stages. Cargo only moves as fast as the slowest one, so find the bottleneck, upgrade it and watch your earnings jump. Milestones double your speed and bring new boats, bigger ships and more cranes into the bay.

A LIVING BAY
• Crystal-clear water with coral reefs, kelp forests, an old wreck, fish, rays and turtles
• A full day and night: golden hours, pink dusks and glittering harbor lights
• Tap the water to make ripples, fish out drifting crates and catch the Golden Gull's VIP charter

IDLE REWARDS
• Your port keeps earning while you're away
• Daily deliveries, the Captain's wheel, goals and pearls
• Sell your port for Fame, and grow even faster next time

No account needed and nothing to buy: Tidewater is free, supported by ads. Play in English, Turkish or Spanish.
