A deliberate and calming city-builder that focuses on organic layouts and believable communities without restrictive grid limitations.

What players say

Players praise the calming pace and intricate building animations, with many noting it's a relaxing alternative to Manor Lords. However, it remains in early access since 2020, and some report freezing on the main screen or late-game crashes, alongside a lack of workshop support.
