What you do in the woods

A dirt path through a dense forest, with the goal at the top left and the build button at the bottom right

Chop, build, start small

You begin with an axe and a clearing. Chop trees, build a tent and a campfire, and watch the mist slowly lift.

A parchment letter from Grandpa Gerrit about hunger and thirst

A garden of your own

Find seeds, make a shovel, dig a patch and wait for your first berries and carrots to ripen.

A freshly restored cottage with an orange roof and a wooden door

From ruin to living homestead

Step by step you rebuild Grandpa's farm: walls, roof, chimney. Later the village comes back to life too, with a baker, a smith and a beekeeper who have a job for you.

Grandpa Gerrit and the woods

Grandpa Gerrit sits on the porch of the farm with his dog Bruno
Grandpa Gerrit lived on his farm with Bruno, his faithful dog. Every day they sat on the porch and looked out at the woods.

Long ago he, his little brother Piet and the girl next door, Mien, made a promise: one day we will throw a big party together.
An overgrown farmhouse in the woods
But the years went by. The woods took everything back, until there was hardly any farm left to see.
A hiker with a backpack and a map on a forest path
