Taking care of your villagers is crucial. Initially, you need to provide them with basic necessities like food and shelter. However, the world is fraught with dangers, such as infections and plagues, which can threaten your community. Each villager has unique reactions to events, and their happiness directly affects their productivity. Happy villagers work more efficiently, while unhappy ones may cause disruptions.

As your villagers form strong bonds, some may decide to start families, introducing new members to your community. It's important to ensure that children have a joyful upbringing and receive proper education, which can be challenging to balance.

Food is a vital aspect of the game. You must cultivate various seasonal crops and establish a kitchen to prepare meals. It's essential to stockpile food before winter and protect your fields from pests to keep your colonists healthy and happy.

Surviving winter requires careful planning and sufficient food reserves. As resources dwindle and the cold sets in, maintaining hope becomes a challenge.

Trading is another key element. As your colony produces goods, you can engage with traveling traders to acquire valuable items or additional food for winter. Keeping production steady ensures you have items to trade, which is crucial for maintaining morale and paying salaries.

Researching new technologies is vital for progress. By dedicating time to research, you unlock better equipment and new construction options. Choosing the right scholars for this task is important, as their personalities affect their research efficiency.

Your colony isn't alone in this new land. Hostile Tikigoblins may threaten your settlement, so training your colonists in combat and equipping them with weapons and armor is essential. Building defenses like walls and towers helps protect your community from attacks.

The game also supports modding, offering a ModKit and tutorials for players interested in creating or exploring new mods. You can find and share mods on the Steam Workshop to enhance your gameplay experience.
