Details

The full picture

Written from verified facts; labels mark how strong each statement's evidence is.

01

What the game is

TIMBER! Idle Village Builder is an idle village builder released October 12, 2026 at $2.99.

Swing your axe, drop the trees, and watch a village rise from the stumps.

Your settlement grows behind its palisade, with each building filled by a worker you can watch doing their job.

02

Building and talents

Open the build menu, drop a foundation on the grid, and watch builders haul materials in and raise it plank by plank.

Every upgrade tier costs the resource of its age, so your village visibly changes shape as you climb.

Earn Renown and spend it on a branching talent tree with four paths: Axe & Felling, Village & Automation, Economy & Resources, and Masters & Magic.

03

Ages and visitors

Advance through five ages - Primitive, Wood, Stone, Iron and Medieval - each requiring stockpiles, key buildings and a strong wall.

Completing an age triggers Totem Time: raise the totem and the whole village transforms in front of you.

The forest brings guests - thieves, merchants, treasure hunters and nobles - and wizards walk the treeline regrowing trees (BOUNDED: official Steam description, checked 2026-10-13).
