Shape the Fate of an Early Society

Lead a prehistoric settlement from its earliest beginnings and guide it through a harsh and unpredictable world. In this pre-historic city-builder and survival simulation, every decision matters — from how resources are gathered and shared to how belief, defense, and social structure shape the fate of your people.

Build and Expand Your Settlement

Design and grow your village with huts, tents, production buildings, and defensive structures. Assign citizens to jobs, manage food and materials, and plan your settlement layout carefully to ensure long-term survival as conditions and challenges evolve.

A Living Citizen Simulation

Your villagers are not just numbers. Each citizen acts autonomously, gathering resources, crafting tools, transporting goods, hunting animals, and defending the settlement. Their behavior is shaped by needs, environment, and the overall state of the village, creating an organic and dynamic simulation.

Belief, Culture, and Order

Survival extends beyond food and shelter. Religious and belief-based systems grant different bonuses and influence how your society develops over time. Early cultural and governance mechanics introduce meaningful choices that affect morale, stability, and settlement identity.

Defend Against a Hostile World

The world is dangerous and unforgiving. Players must prepare for and respond to hostile threats such as raids while balancing expansion and defense. How you organize and protect your people will determine whether the settlement endures or falls.

Interconnected Survival Systems

Built around deeply interconnected systems — survival, resource management, hunting, crafting, farming, and knowledge sharing between citizens — the game rewards long-term planning and thoughtful decision-making over simple optimization.
