Idle Village
In Idle Village, you run a small settlement that slowly turns into a full village and then a busy town. The place starts empty and quiet, and progress depends completely on how you assign people and spend resources. It plays like a calm strategy game where you watch numbers grow while the villagers carry out the jobs you picked for them.
How to play?
Workers do all the basic gathering. Select a villager, choose a task, and lock in the resource you want, like wood or stone. The worker keeps collecting that single resource until the source is fully drained, so production only changes when you give new orders. If a spot runs out, the villager just stands there and waits for the next command. Use harvested resources to build houses, farms, and mines, then upgrade them as your storage fills up. More buildings and upgrades let you hire more villagers, which speeds up the whole idle village economy. Food management remains important throughout because workers cannot function without something to eat.
Send part of your crew to gather berries or hunt, and let the rest focus on mining or chopping. As the town grows, juggling food, construction, and resource extraction becomes a real management puzzle. Idle Village keeps running while your villagers work, so good decisions early on pay off later when the screen fills with buildings. Jump in, set your worker jobs, and shape a strategy village that runs exactly how you want it. Tap a villager, assign a resource, then watch your idle strategy unfold.
