[h2]Hey, Backpackers![/h2] Have you tried the Story Mode on the testing branch already? How do you like it? 🐭 To make this new experience as pleasant as possible for you, [b]we want to tell you more about Haversack Hill basics![/b] We’ll start with the resources you need to rebuild the town, and the buildings themselves. [h3][img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42290630/13ecfac935f77108eead64b0bbf49a6640bdd2cf.png[/img] Let’s go through the resources first![/h3] There are 3 new kinds: 🧀 food 🔨 building materials 💎 treasure [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42290630/40fbe2e1f872ce8a7501bd9875a2fc9a10f3f0ed.png[/img] [b]How to get them?[/b] Easy - by selling or scrapping items from the dungeons! Bigger and rarer items are worth more, so fill in your backpacks to the brim! [b]You can use the resources not only to construct new buildings in Haversack Hill, but also conduct research to unlock more powerful items.[/b] Some buildings will also generate certain resources while you’re busy in the dungeons, for example the Temple will produce treasure, and the Blacksmith - building material.

From simple houses that’ll allow you to increase your population, through farms and greenhouses, to military facilities like Fletcher or Barracks, [b]there are ~50 new constructions to place in Haversack Hill[/b] and turn it into a proper town. [b]Many buildings allow you to not only get resources, but also research items.[/b] Look for new consumables in the Tavern, visit the Library to learn about powerful relics, or stop by the Magical Mycelium to unlock more magical items!

Put the Fletcher next to the Barracks, add commercial decorations around the Store, or connect the buildings with the Town Hall to boost their efficiency!
