Getting Started: From Dirt to Your First Trade

Early Game Progression

Begin by gathering basic dirt blocks and starter materials from your surroundings. These humble resources form the foundation of your empire. Once you've collected enough, seek out the custom villagers scattered throughout the map—they form the backbone of your economy.

Trade your gathered materials with these villagers to earn currency. As your wealth grows, you'll unlock access to better gear and weapons. Focus on completing trades that give you the most value, then reinvest those earnings into expanding your settlement.

Your ultimate goal is to progress through all five civilization eras, each representing a major upgrade to your base and capabilities. Each era unlocks new trading opportunities and more powerful equipment. Keep trading, keep building, and work toward reaching the final Diamond Age—the pinnacle of your civilization's development.
