About the game

Lead survivors to build a new home in an unknown wilderness. Develop your settlement, defend against threats, and explore the world alongside a lord who truly lives among your people. Let your lord act independently, or take direct control and write your own frontier legend.

Original Steam description

Lead your people away from persecution and settle in an unknown wilderness to build a new home. In this harsh land filled with danger and opportunity, you must establish your settlement from nothing.

Build a settlement from the ground up

  • Build shelters and expand your settlement

  • Cultivate the land and develop industries

  • Build up production and manage your resources

  • Recruit new settlers and grow your population

A humble refuge grows into a thriving domain.

A living lord in a living world

Your lord is not just an icon on a management screen, but a living character within the world — one who lives among your people in your settlement.

  • Let your lord work, fight, and explore alongside your people

  • Switch to a third-person view at any time and take direct control, venturing into unknown lands as a pioneer and a ruler

The world around you is full of events:

  • Discover hidden enemies

  • Find opportunities that could change the fate of your settlement

Fight for the home you have built

Your new home will not be left in peace. Sooner or later, you will have to defend it.

  • Repel bandit raids on your settlement

  • March on enemy camps and strike back

  • Take in wandering survivors and recruit them into your ranks

Every decision you make will shape the future of your new homeland. Build your settlement, protect your people, explore the unknown, and create your own legend as a lord.
