Rural description

Rural — a cozy, handcrafted life-sim in a voxel world

Reclaim your roots in Rural, a family-made indie game that blends classic farming and life-simulation with a vibrant 3D voxel world. Start with almost nothing and, with hard work and perseverance, build a life that feels truly yours. Choose your path: a relaxing, cozy routine or a challenging survival journey — the difficulty options let you decide how peaceful—or harsh—country life will be.

  • Core gameplay: 3D voxel farming, crafting, and survival in a living countryside.
  • Farming and animals: Grow crops, orchard trees, and cereals; raise chickens, sheep, pigs, cows, and horses; collect eggs, wool, and milk; butcher animals for meat; cook meals to restore hunger, energy, and health while learning new recipes.
  • Deep crafting and building: Turn logs into firewood and timber, craft furniture, tools, carts, and storage. Build essential structures like barns, coops, sawmills, forges, and workbenches to support your homestead.
  • Exploration and danger: Explore forests, mountains, rivers, and the sea. Mine stone, coal, iron, and gold; smelt ore into bars. Hunt wildlife—rabbits, deer, bears—and watch for wolves and bears that can threaten you and your animals.
  • Companions and transport: Tame and ride horses, build carts for heavy loads, and travel faster across the world. Adopt a loyal dog and navigate waterways with a motorboat to reach new fishing spots.
  • Fishing and seasons: Fish in rivers, lakes, and the sea across changing seasons with varied species and behaviors, using the right bait and techniques for rewards.
  • A living village: A nearby town with 30 unique NPCs—farmers, hunters, miners, doctors, builders, artists, and more. They follow daily schedules, visit markets, run shops, offer quests, and deepen friendships as you help them.
  • Home and customization: Build, upgrade, and decorate your home with crafted furniture and personal touches to reflect your style.
  • Camera options and immersion: Four distinct seasons, a calendar system, and multiple camera modes—top-down, third-person, and first-person—to suit your preferred playstyle.

Rural is a family-made project—crafted with care alongside a teenage son and contributions from a younger sister. It invites you to live off the land, form connections, and experience a rustic life that grows with you.
