Kinfolk is a "Cozy-Chaos Multiplayer Peasant Sim". It blends creativity, cooperation, and emergent storytelling in a unique round-based structure with a cozy atmosphere where you take on a role in a shared community, tackling objectives from peaceful daily tasks to chaotic events, while the town around you hopefully doesn't fall apart!
In Kinfolk, you live a day in the life of a villager in a cozy medieval town and work towards completing your daily tasks before the sun sets. As each unique round progresses, the village will almost certainly become more and more chaotic, as the everyday dangers of life in the early middle ages, such as fire, the plague, and even a simple cut, present challenges both big and small. You and your Kin will have to work together to survive the thousand ways you can die!
