About

"Life is hard" is a strategy/village management game. Your aim here is to control a tribe. Defend your village, harvest resources, expand your town, colonize the islands, upgrade your tools and weapons and contact with other civilizations. There is no specific aim in our game. You can do whatever you want.

Expand your village: build farms and houses, upgrade tools in blacksmith, trade with your neighbors. It’s your destiny to create the most powerful town in this amazing world!

Conquer the world by fire & sword or with power of diplomacy. What would you choose – to help your neighbors to deal with the Vikings for iron ore or to rob them to get more? To pay the Normans tribute or to refuse, condemning your nation to war? To trade with the caravan or to loot it? Make your choice, but remember: every medal has its reverse...

Prove that your civilization is the most cultured by building the Wonder of the World! You have to put many resources in that project. But it’s worth it, isn’t it?

Whatever you choose, your path won’t be easy. Your plans can be ruined by one of many random events. But it’s no need to get upset! In the moments of crisis there come those, who are the only support of justice. Those, who are ready to lead people into the thick of battle. Heroes – braves, who are lead by you and ready to support people in need. They are ready to die for their ideas. Every one of them has unique talents that can help you in different situations.

The belief of your people is strong not only in heroes, but in the God. Choose your patron, but be careful: that choice will affect the whole game. Pray your god and he’ll give you talent of a trader. Or, maybe, the forest itself will raise against your enemies? Will he reveal the secrets of construction and craft to you? It’s your choice. Choose wise, because life of the whole nation is on you!

Remember that life is hard. Whatever you choose, remember, you path will be thorny.

Life is Hard reviews and comments

Early Access Review This game is a very unique Indie game. It has a big potential and makes a lot of fun. But just only untill the bugs make this game nearly impossible to play. I give this game a positiv recommendation because it is still early access so it is allowed to have bugs and when these are solved this game will bring a lot of fun. (wish there were a tablet version too)

Early access review let's be clear, the game is really not user friendly at all, in any case the first few minutes! But once in hand, it's really very nice. Do not take into account the opinion of "I have not understood so it sucks". Putting a negative assessment because a game is difficult to access is as stupid as dealing with imbecile Einstein because we don't understand anything about general relativity...

Early Access Review The Game is a good Idea but it plays very hard to impossible. Have not progressed beyond spring so far. All the Citizens were Sick After some Time and then they become very lame and do the Job inadequately. If that comes then it's almost Game Over the Game. I could be sick of this When the Citizens are sick no longer to fix it. If the Citizens can bathe (you need Soap to do that) you can probably bypass that People get sick. Problem only that you start in Winter and you can plant NOTHING in the Fields. In Spring everyone is sick, really great:-(! The Start Of the game should be In the Spring without Snow, which would be a better Start. I werds weietr try that it's going on, until then I just got a Thumb down I'm sorry. Storing doesn't work for me!!! Must always restart the annoying.

Early Access Review-good Game, but unfortunately too many Mistakes to be playable. -Hud constantly crashes, making it impossible to select the individuals and distribute jobs-Self-build with the Champion (Skills cannot be used) buildings become transparent and are no longer uss-after loading a secured game Stand Do I experience 100% of these Mistakes, impossible to play longer than 1-2 Hours-while a Video player is running in the background, the Game Microrückler miner gets pointless standing at the Entrance and can't do anything more than send them up and down- Never build the Pig House + Fisherman's Hut and equip It with a Worker! After that, there are Foodbugs. Example: Food is no longer produced (Seeds and Food e.g. b Pumpkin), if the Fisherman's house was built, this and the Pig Hut can no longer be demolished
