What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“Our goal of Early Access to Rustica is to enable our community to provide suggestions and request features for the game while we finish development. We deeply value our community's involvement and want to ensure that we make the most enjoyable version of what Rustica is intended to be.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We foresee Rustica being in Early Access for at least three months with the possibility of extending up to a year depending on the engagement and feedback we receive from our community.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“The early access version of Rustica more closely resembles a toy than it does a game with objectives. We plan to add optional objectives for players, even more objects to discover, citizen professions, and expanded Twitch integration capabilities. We are dedicated to engaging with our community and have a strong desire to incorporate your feedback as much as possible.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“Rustica is currently in a playable and stable state with the core game mechanics, weather system, discoveries, and citizen professions in place. There are currently 5 different Citizen types and 58 potential discoveries with the Early Access release.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“The price of Rustica is projected to remain the same through release.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“We intend to communicate, provide updates and host polls about prospective features for our fans through the Steam community forums as well as on our official Twitter, Facebook and our Discord server.”

About This Game

“Give the people what they want and they will… do what they want to do.”

Your Citizens Need You



Rustica puts you in the unique role of a custodian of a Greco-Roman colony. You have land but not much else and it’s up to you to spruce up the place. You’ll need to discover and provide resources for your world and your citizens will interact with it as they see fit, they have free will after all. Watch your world grow over time and with a keen eye for planning and a bit of luck you can sit back and watch your people thrive.

Start Out Small



You’ll need to begin by laying down the foundations. Your citizens can’t build out of thin air so you’ll need to give them the basics like trees and stone and hope they know what to do with it. Each object has requirements called schemas in order to be placed in the world and some need other objects present in specific spots, and it's up to you to discover how to unlock them.

Plan For the Future



Eventually, some of your citizens will feel the need to specialize and focus on a trade. They’ll become farmers, miners, priests and then some. This will allow them to interact with their world in new ways and this in turn will open up new objects and schemas for your growing community.

A Hero Rises



Once in a while a citizen decides to go on a hero’s quest. Foolish mortals. You can then go and give the hero what they need to finish their quest or don’t mind them because you have better things to do, like making sure that temple gets built over there by those trees.

Sit Back and Watch the Sunset



Tinker and tweak with the world you create and watch your citizens hard work pay off. Or do like Nero and watch the world burn, figuratively.
It’s your world to play with, you decide.
