Cozy Citybuilder Hearth and Hamlet Set to Release April Demo After Surging Steam Charts
Hearth and Hamlet is a cozy incremental citybuilder with a warm pixel art aesthetic, bringing players all the way from a single campfire in the woods to a bustling civilization. Oversee your massive fantasy kingdom, drafting laws and setting policies to keep everything humming and efficient whilst you lead your society into expansion and prosperity!
Hearth and Hamlet sees players assigning their growing population of workers to gather resources, before transitioning into constructing shops, town-halls, barracks, banks, and magic academies. Discover strange lands across the waters and set and oversee policies of trade and diplomacy to acquire exotic resources and mystical artefacts. All the while, players manage citizens’ happiness for production bonuses, and recruit soldiers and guardsman to protect your civilization from dangerous animals and raiders.
The game’s magical energy and citybuilder charm have seen it surge the charts in its first month listed on Steam, and is set to release a demo alongside the Steam Medieval Fest on April 20th.
