About This Game

Hearth Bound is a cozy co-op fantasy home building game about gathering friends, discovering new decor, and slowly turning a humble hearth into a living home.

Build together, explore thousands of decorations, and craft spaces that feel uniquely yours with plenty of QOL features including creating prefabs, duplication and custom collections.

Build Together - Start small, then grow your home together

Collaborate on rooms, share decorating ideas, and watch your home evolve as everyone contributes together.

Snap objects to grids for tidy builds or turn snapping off for more organic designs. Arrange clutter, decorate walls, experiment with layouts, and fine-tune every detail until your hearth feels just right.

Save presets, create favorited collections, and expand and remove walls freely!

Create rooms, corridors, cellars, attics, walls, floors and ceilings anywhere!
