Buy Desktopia: A Desktop Village Simulator PC key

Desktopia: A Desktop Village Simulator is a city-builder that runs along the bottom of your desktop, letting you grow a medieval-style village while you work, browse or watch something else. You make the major decisions or take control of an axe-wielding character to harvest resources, fight, put out fires and interact with villagers. You can play actively or leave the village to develop on its own.

Grow your village

Start by clearing bushes, earning gold and building a welcome sign. Villagers move in independently, harvest resources and bring in gold; you can help them or let them work. Build facilities such as chicken coops, inns, libraries, post offices, temples and blacksmiths to meet their needs and attract more residents. As the village grows, serfs can become nobles or industrialists, while you choose between a low-tech settlement with few needs and a high-tech one with more demanding villagers.

Villagers have individual needs and personalities. Their moods respond to weather, village events and personal events; happy villagers give you gratitude, which you can collect and spend on festivals. Low moods can lead some villagers to steal or commit arson. Fires can kill villagers and destroy buildings, whether they are started by enemies, criminals or by accident.

Defend the road

Attacks and enemies grow more dangerous as your village expands. Recruit and upgrade soldiers to fight undead, bandits, fairies and demons, and join battles as your character if you choose. You can hire heroes to lead attacks and destroy enemy strongholds; bosses block your progress down the road, and heroes can help counter them. Huntable animals and monsters also threaten the settlement, including wild boars that attack when the village expands into an animal grove.

Desktop features

The game is designed to share your screen with other tasks. You can resize the game world, keep it above other windows, and arrange its resizable pop-out UI windows anywhere on your screen. Your playable character levels up alongside the village, so you can jump into the action at any time. Spy Mode lets you focus on any villager and watch their life, while logs, statistics, charts and graphs track the settlement.
