About the game
You start with a caravan and a farm on an island full of places to investigate. You grow crops, fish, mine and craft goods for your chosen profession. Beyond the farm, caves hold useful materials and temples hide puzzles, traps and treasure. You also find eggs and hatch magical Lumas that help you uncover more secrets.
Up to four players share the island online. You can pool resources, build beside each other or follow different activities at your own pace. Tool upgrades and profession ranks give you goals to return to. There are no stamina bars or inventory limits, and the difficulty modes let you choose how much danger interrupts your farming and exploring.
