About Karawan
Karawan is a turn-based strategy game about leading a caravan across a world that's falling apart. You move one turn at a time, gather what you need along the way and head for a portal that offers a way out.
Your caravan forages, mines and grows as more followers join. Wagons gather three kinds of resources, and each one has to be assigned by hand to work a field next to it until you earn the foreman upgrade. You can also hire a Magus, whose spells reshape the world around you.
The look is isometric pixel art in dusty pinks and purples, with a swirling rift in the sky. It's a post-jam version of a 72-hour game jam entry, a run takes a few minutes, and you can play Karawan online here with only the mouse.
How to Play Karawan
- Choose a world from the selector on the title screen and start.
- Play with the mouse. Everything is point and click.
- Move your caravan one turn at a time across the map.
- Forage and mine as you go, and take on followers to grow the group.
- Assign each wagon to an adjacent field so it works that tile, until you have the foreman upgrade.
- Hire a Magus, use spells to change the world, and make for the portal.
What to Expect in Karawan
Karawan is a calm-looking turn-based strategy game with real tension underneath. Every turn you're weighing whether to stop and gather or push on, while the land crumbles around you.
It's compact, built in 72 hours and updated after the jam, so a full run fits in a few minutes. The Magus and the world-changing spells are the highlight. Playing Karawan free in the browser takes no setup, so it's easy to try a couple of runs back to back.
Tips for Karawan
- Aim to have a wagon for each of the three resource types early, so you're never short.
- Remember to assign wagons to an adjacent field. They do not work on their own until you have the foreman upgrade.
- Hire a Magus as soon as you can. The spells are worth it.
- Look ahead before each move so you can stop next to useful fields.
- If the audio crackles in your browser, turn the sound down or off. The downloadable version avoids that problem.

Can I play Karawan on a Chromebook or phone?
A Chromebook or laptop is a good fit, since Karawan runs in a browser tab and is played with the mouse alone. A trackpad works. On a phone it may load, but the isometric map and small fields are much easier to read and click on a bigger screen.
Is Karawan unblocked at school?
Karawan unblocked access depends on your school's network. The game runs in a normal browser tab and installs nothing. If the network allows this site, it should load. School filters are set by the school, and we do not control them.
Why does the sound crackle in Karawan?
The browser version of Karawan can have audio problems, including crackling, on some computers. If it bothers you, turn the sound down or mute it and carry on playing. The downloadable version of the game avoids the issue if you want the full audio without crackles.
What does the Magus do in Karawan?
The Magus is a character you can hire for your caravan in Karawan. Once you have one, you can cast spells that transform the world around you. The spells are one of the most fun parts of the game, so getting a Magus early is a good idea on most runs.
