Draw safe routes. Guide ships to dock. Keep the harbor moving. Harbor King is a real-time ship traffic game that puts you in charge of a busy port. Draw a path for each boat, guide it to the correct dock to unload, then send it safely back out to sea. Watch every route: one collision can disrupt your run. DRAW, DOCK AND DEPART • Guide small boats and large cargo ships by drawing lines across the water. • Bring each vessel to the right dock to unload its cargo. • Keep dock entrances clear and plan around ships already on the move. • Lead ships out of the harbor once unloading is complete. KEEP TRAFFIC UNDER CONTROL As more vessels arrive, routes cross and dock space becomes limited. Plan ahead, react quickly and manage several ships at once. Different boats bring different handling challenges, making timing and route planning essential. COLLECT COINS AND CONTINUE YOUR RUN Draw through coin lines to collect coins along your route. Spin the daily wheel for additional rewards, then use coins to buy extra lives and continue after a mistake. QUICK ROUNDS, GROWING CHALLENGES Harbor King combines route drawing, time management and fast decisions in short play sessions. Each arrival gives you another path to plan and another collision to avoid. Take charge of the port and guide every ship safely home.
