This game is wonderful! It is a pleasant retreat from games where killing is central to the gameplay. It has excellent scope in my opinion and I have really enjoyed playing it. I love the medieval period and the graphics and ambience of this game really give you the feeling that you have gone back in time 700 years to the late 13th century.
The game passes at a gentle, unrushed pace giving you plenty of time to take in the air and the surroundings before setting off on your discovery of the two villages in the game and all the beautiful countryside. There are characters with whom you can interact, learn information about and receive quests to fulfil. You have to eat to counter your hunger and therefore keep up your health, rest and sleep to maintain your energy, and pray to maintain your all-important faith during the middle ages. For me, although this is, at the moment at least, just a game of small environment, I still enjoy the open-world style of play where you are free to roam around and go about your daily business as you wish... which mostly consists of working in the woodland gathering wood and stone to trade for pay at the local market... this being a primary source of your income as a peasant. You can also do some occasional for other villagers in return for something of use, such as a tool or food.
If you want to 'chill' in a medieval life with a certain level of realism, yet without worrying about getting killed by someone or some beast, this is a game in development worth spending some hours with. I certainly do hope the game is still being developed (June, 2022) and I greatly look forward to a complete version at some point which I am more than prepared to pay for and I feel certain that many others would too. Some things are worth waiting for and this game ticks that box... for I downloaded this game a couple of years ago! To the one-man dev: keep going... don't give up! 💪👍💲💲💲
