Haven & Hearth: Sandbox RPG with Open World Survival

A sandbox RPG with open world survival elements, where players must gather materials, craft tools and buildings, farm crops and livestock, and collaborate with others to create settlements and civilizations.

What is Haven & Hearth?

Haven & Hearth is an open world fantasy survival sandbox RPG developed and published by Freehold Games. The game features a procedurally generated open world with a variety of biomes to explore, including forests, plains, deserts, and snowy areas.

Players start the game with only basic tools and must gather resources like wood, stone, fibers, and ores to craft weapons, armor, food, buildings, and more advanced tools. Core gameplay revolves around survival mechanics like hunger, thirst, temperature, and injuries.

An important aspect of Haven & Hearth is collaboration with other players. Groups of players can form settlements, dividing up responsibilities like resource gathering, defense, crafting, cooking, farming, and exploring. These settlements can eventually grow into small civilizations with their own governments, cultural practices, trade networks, and security forces.

Combat plays a role in the game as well, both in hunting animals for food and materials and protecting settlements from brigands, slavers, and supernatural threats. Players have access to a variety of medieval weapons like swords, spears, bows, and siege engines to engage in tactical combat.

With its emphasis on player freedom, emergent gameplay from settlement building, and surviving in a harsh open world environment with other players, Haven & Hearth offers a unique multiplayer medieval life simulation experience.
