During the  day you can let your characters collect resources,  craft buildings , read books and go fishing. The only thing that is "dangerous" during the day is the time running by - You must have all the important preparations done before winter arrives.

At night one of your characters will travel to the next town to find loot. Some of it is highly valuable, so think twice before you throw loot into your stockpile box - you won't get it back once it is in there.

 

You win the game as soon as you have completed all 4 buildings and when your stockpile is at 100%* To be able to build the buildings, you will have to find and read the books teaching you what  materials and tools you need (make sure to hold tools always in your hands when they are needed). To stockpile things, drag them into the wooden box**

* There was not enough time to playtest the game properly. As it turns out, filling the stockpile takes ages as it is implemented now. Therefore, you can consider it a victory if you complete all 4 buildings on time.

**Make sure  to not throw tools or rare materials (some are needed for building) or books (before you have read them) into the box. They won't spawn again.

 

You can only keep one item of the same type in your inventory. When you drag a second one of the same type in your inventory, it will disappear. This is a particular problem when it comes to nails.  Two of them are needed to build the workbench. If you find more than one while looting, drag only one  in your inventory - use it, and wait for the next night to get the other one  (it will still be there).

Agree with oHoodie. The art is great and the mechanic looks promising, but the pace of the game is a little too slow, and I don't feel a pressure that I need to collect items(and I'm not sure how to use those new items), maybe add status to the character,  to give player more motivation to collect and loot.

Lovely Game!
I think if everything would move a little bit faster (both looting & harvesting/building) I would enjoy it even more.
Also I found out you can drag your characters onto the item hotbar at the bottom and they'll disappear.
