How it feels

a whimsical city-building sandbox where you and friends shape a wilderness kingdom with bright, low-stakes creativity and occasional defense against foes.

What players say

Players say the hybrid of city-builder and action is promising but unfinished. They report frequent crashes, a lack of depth in combat and building upgrades, and limited activities that get repetitive quickly. Some find the running and throwing mechanics fun, while others are frustrated by bugs and stun-locking enemies.
