[h3]๐Ÿ“ฃ Hello, Sherwood Builders! ๐Ÿน[/h3] Starting from scratch is often a difficult predicament, one that Robin Hood and the Merry Men face in Sherwood Builders as they're doomed to a life on the run from the Sheriff. But that doesn't discourage them. The brave outlaws found a hideout concealed deep in the woods of Barnsdale and it's up to Robin to help make it grow and bring aid to the oppressed people of Nottingham's surrounding lands, and to do that, he needs to become a...

Expanding this base provides many [b]benefits[/b]: [list] [*][b]Resource production[/b] โ€“ A lot of raw materials found in the game's world can also be produced right in Robin's village for easy collection from its Storage after a certain amount of time. Invest right and you might not have to forage as much. [*][b]Crafting[/b] โ€“ Not all item production can be done by hand. If Robin's to upgrade his gear, he'll need the right workshop. [*][b]Training[/b] โ€“ Another category of buildings will allow Robin to improve his various skills, both those related to combat and not. [*][b]Decorating[/b] โ€“ Surely, many don't want their creation to be bland and strictly just functional. The denizens of Robin's hideout will feel much better if you add a touch of aesthetics to the community with some decorative elements. [/list] All the advantages don't come with no effort and if you wish to reap the benefits of the [b]Builder Mode[/b], you'll need to face several [b]challenges[/b] as well: [list] [*][b]Caring for the people[/b] โ€“ All the fruits of your village's labour won't come from thin air. You need people loyal to your cause to put their backs into it. Recruit new villagers from the surrounding lands through various events, house them, feed them, and give them jobs if you want your hideout running the way you picture it. [*][b]Securing the materials[/b] โ€“ Buildings are not only constructed, but also upgraded. The more advanced your structures the better the advantages you can gain from them. But progress 'will' require increasingly more sophisticated resources. Secure them first while campaigning through the Regions and maybe you'll afford yourself the opportunity to generate them yourself later. [*][b]Space management[/b] โ€“ It may seem like you have the whole forest to yourself, but a hideout won't be quite that hidden if it just sprawls endlessly. There's technically enough room to secure all the Merry Men's needs and also get creative, but first you'll need to wrest it from the thick forest by cutting down its trees. [/list][previewyoutube=OavagAjRCwc;full][/previewyoutube] Robin's village is essential to progressing through the game, but we've made sure all the rules of this gameplay aspect are transparent and the interface for managing everything for it is easy to follow with the right stats and indicators. We can't wait to see your versions of the hideout! More news to come!
