You are the sovereign of a town called Mistwinter Bay. The sovereign you create decides the fate of the town and everyone in it. Decide which buildings to build and who gets to live in town. Interact with your townsfolk by sending them on missions or hang out one-on-one. Each character is unique, with their own profession, personal history and strengths and weaknesses. Deal with international politics by befriending or becoming enemies with powerful foreign leaders. Watch the seasons pass as you are faced with a unique, random event every month. The way you decide to handle an event not only affects the ending of the event itself, but the entire town. Will you become a sovereign loved by all or will you adapt your choices to please someone in town – or perhaps someone across the sea? Create the sovereign you want to be with the powerful character creator. Choose between a variety of body types, faces, hairstyles, outfits and accessories, with the ability to color most aspects freely. All options are available for all types of sovereigns. The town of Mistwinter Bay is home to all sorts of people. There are three townsfolk at your service from the start, ready to be sent to handle tasks in events if you ask them to, but more can move in by expanding the town with additional buildings. You can hang out with the locals one-on-one, if your reputation is good enough. Eventually, this may even lead to marriage. Keep in mind, however, that they are their own individuals, with their own opinions, and they may like or dislike you based on your actions. If you are unlucky – or cruel – your actions may even spell their death. At your assistance are your two advisers – Jacques and Sophia – who keep you updated on any and all things going on in Mistwinter Bay and beyond. Trust your advisers or go against them during random, unique events that occur every month. The choices you make in these events may affect individual townsfolk, the entire town, and maybe even places beyond it. Mistwinter Bay can be expanded at your leisure – if you have the resources required. You decide which buildings to build and ultimately who lives in the town. Most buildings are associated with a character, so when a new building is built, you can expect a new face in town. If you are ever curious about who can move in to town, make sure to check out the local inn every season to see who has journeyed to Mistwinter Bay. Mistwinter Bay is but a small town on a great continent full of colorful cultures and people. As a new player on the continental arena, you get the chance to meet and interact with some of the most powerful people on the continent of Hruminus. If you play your cards right, you may gain powerful allies – maybe even more than that. If you have found your true love, you may start a family together by adopting one of four children. Every child has their own personality and your interactions with them will shape their future – and by extension, the future of Mistwinter Bay.
