Press release:

Welcome to Thveit

Thveit is a cozy Norse settlement builder where changing seasons, ancient beliefs, and folklore creatures shape the fate of your settlements.

Begin with a handful of settlers and a single forest clearing. Raise homes, cultivate fields, fish, tend livestock, build workshops, and grow a community where humans and mythical beings learn to live side by side.

It is a warm storybook world, although winter and the local spirits may have opinions about your building plans.

Build a home with a story of its own

From clearing to community

Shape a wild clearing into a place of warmth and comfort. Your settlers need shelter, food, clothing, jobs, storage, and safe places to gather.

Build farms, fishing spots, workshops, docks, faith structures, and layered production chains. What your settlement produces and how it trades will gradually shape its reputation among neighboring realms.

A year has a rhythm
Every season leaves its mark

Spring supports growth. Summer favors building and voyages. Autumn is the time to store food, clothes, fuel, and offerings. Then winter arrives to inspect everything you forgot.

Keep your people fed, warm, and safe while the systems you built are tested by snow, long nights, and the hardships of the wild.

The veil between worlds
Learn who shares the land

Large footprints appear near forests. Rivers glow with strange lights. Ravens watch sacred places. Cats gather before nightfall, which is probably worth paying attention to.

Build Study Posts and use the Book of Creatures to understand the beings your settlers encounter. Learn what they need before deciding how to welcome, appease, or respectfully avoid them.

Trolls, cats, dragons, river spirits, restless dead, and ancient gods can bring warnings, needs, benefits, and consequences. Treat them well and some may become neighbors, helpers, guardians, or something close to family.

A few things waiting in the clearing

Build a living settlement: Raise homes, cultivate fields, fish, tend livestock, craft goods, and develop an economy through layered production chains.

Care for individual lives: Settlers work, rest, celebrate, and gather together as traditions and stories take shape across generations.

Honor old beliefs: Build shrines, make offerings, perform rituals, and live beneath the gaze of gods whose favor and tempers respond to your choices.

Trade and voyage: Build connections beyond your shores in search of settlers, rare resources, relics, folklore knowledge, and discoveries that can change the village’s future.

We are glad to finally introduce you to Thveit. There is plenty more in the forest, but the ravens are being unhelpfully mysterious about it.
