Hey guys a little game explanation.
This provides information on how the game will unfold. The vast 50-acre land is a substantial area, and we'll gradually aim to utilize it fully, encompassing space for dwellings. In this setting, magic plays a role, casting you as an unlicensed mage-convict, potentially raising questions from authorities if you employ it. The concept is somewhat inspired by Stardew Valley. We'll assess the tools available, including magic, and make decisions through rolling. There are four specific aspects related to farming: plowing, irrigation, harvest, and tending to the farms. The outcome of the rolls will determine bonuses or penalties, with tools and magic providing potential advantages. The same principles apply to the other two aspects. Initially, assuming manual labor, we can plow the land by hand. Additionally, there are "light survival aspects" such as ensuring an adequate food supply, establishing permanent shelter, and generating income to invest in the farm.
For instance, if we manually hoe the land, we can plow approximately 5 acres, which includes the necessary clearing. Adding a +1 for using a quality hoe, and potentially additional bonuses for employing magic, seeking assistance, or any other helpful factors, let's assume we reach a total of +7. When we roll the dice, I'll compile the results from all the rolls. Using a 1d100, outcomes falling in the bottom third (0-33) result in a -2 effect, the middle third (33-67) has no effect, and the top third (68 and above) yields a +2 effect.
Taking care of tending and irrigation operates on an automatic basis, representing a simple time-cost activity performed at the start of each day. Regarding harvesting, we gather crops from all the plowed land, and the multiplier, along with relevant rolls, influences the yield in percentages (-20%, 0, +20%).
The entire process is intertwined with more narrative elements, involving activities such as quests, socializing, and other engagements that both you and the rest of the group have been participating in thus far.
Any questions or criticism will be appreciated!
