Getting started

Settle your Shire

Choose your Reeve, name your Shire, and follow Sir Geoffrey’s free tutorial. Place the Reeve’s house, build a cottage, and learn to plant, speed up, and harvest wheat.

Grow and produce

Tap a field or workshop to open its controls. A yellow highlight marks crops or production ready to collect. Open any recipe below to see its inputs and where to get them.

You start with 3 fields and a 35-item storehouse.

Read the HUD

Gold

Buy buildings, pay production fees, and trade.

Corvée

Spend labour on town actions. It regenerates over time.

Clocks

Speed up eligible construction, production, and travel timers.

Royal favour

Earn favour by completing Crown requests. Higher favour opens new opportunities.

Renown

Earn Renown through city commissions, service to the barons, and wins at the Jousting Lists.

Villager quests

Track requests from people living in the Shire.

Make room to build

Build free roads from the town view. At the Woodcutter, select a wooded plot to clear for 35,000 gold. Clearing takes 24 hours.

Town life

Villagers go to work, visit shops and inns, and return home. On every seventh played day they attend Mass if you have a parish church. You can enter buildings to see their activity.

The visual day and seasons can be adjusted in settings. Production and construction finish on their own timers.
