Build and chill

High Above is a relaxing sandbox game about creating your dream rooftop hideaways!

Design your own elevated retreat, high above the city's noise. Turn an empty rooftop into a dreamy getaway - whether it’s a sunlit Mediterranean courtyard, a sleek modern terrace, a minimalistic Japanese rooftop garden, or a sci-fi hacker hideout. And as you build and decorate, watch as life unfolds - day turns into night, a stray cat strolls in the sun, and birds land for a quick bite.

Build the foundation of your rooftop retreat and shape it just the way you like. Tweak the scale and position of each structure to fit your vision. Whether you’re crafting a single peaceful hideaway or placing multiple buildings to form a cozy little scene, the layout is entirely up to you. Let your creativity guide the skyline!

Decorate your dream rooftops with a wide variety of charming details - from windows, balconies, and moldings to plants and glowing lanterns. Choose from a selection of materials to match your style, whether you’re going for modern minimalism or rustic charm. Add a personal touch with furniture and decor - set up a futuristic PC station, create a warm and cozy reading nook, or build a tranquil space to watch the stars. It’s your hideaway - make it uniquely yours.

If you’re in the mood for a gentle challenge, you can also take on optional mini-missions from visitors who dream of their own rooftop escape. Each of the four themes features three light missions where you create a rooftop retreat based on someone’s personal wishes - from a cozy reading nook to a peaceful Zen garden. Work at your own pace, build within a limited budget, and unlock unique decorative items to use across all your builds.

Take a breath. 

No timers. No stress. Just your own quiet corner in the clouds.
