How it feels

A laid-back medieval village sim that runs along your desktop, letting you dip in and out of resource gathering and battles at your own pace.

What players say

Players praise the concept of a desktop village sim but find it falls between an idle and active game, requiring more attention than expected. Performance is a major complaint, with even high-end PCs struggling. Bugs wipe saves and the multi-window UI frustrates many.
