Stonehearth

Stonehearth is a city-building and management game about helping a small group of settlers make a home in a forgotten land. You establish a food supply, build shelter, defend your people, monitor their moods and expand your settlement as you face challenges. The world uses procedurally generated terrain and dynamic AI encounters, combining community management with combat.

Build your settlement

You decide how your settlement develops once it has gained a foothold. You can shape it into a conquering empire, a trade city or a monastery, and choose how it looks and operates. Early on, you must balance supplying food, building shelter and protecting your people from raiders and other threats.

Develop your settlers

Settlers take on jobs with specific roles, including hauling materials, building, crafting and fighting. They gain experience and levels as they work, and some jobs can advance into new ones with different capabilities when their prerequisites are met. Assigning someone a new job usually also requires crafting a tool for them: for example, a Mason can make stone blocks, statues and tools, but needs a mallet and chisel made by a carpenter.

Customize with mods

The game is designed to be moddable at every level, from your city to the people and creatures that inhabit the world. It includes tools and documentation for creating custom content and sharing it with other players. Mods can add items such as swords, with models and stats that let you craft them in the game, as well as new monsters, scripted adventures and changes to the AI.
