The core loop is construction: you place square blocks ranging from grass to precious stone and sanctuary stone, then expand what you have made into houses, castles and larger projects. The game also includes exploration, hidden caves and a pet system where you can keep dogs, mice or a horse. Notably, no monsters are involved in the building and construction side of the game.

Multiplayer is a central part of the experience. You can join other players online, visit worlds they have built and help them finish structures.
