About the Game

Have you experienced the tranquillity of a little village in the countryside on a warm Sunday afternoon? With leaves rustling, birds chirping and big friendly clouds drawing shadows over the rolling hills covered in fields and forest?



Relax and Take a Break
Hamlet in a Pond is a simple and relaxed city builder which wants to instil this very feeling in you. Where other city builders ask you to always expand, manage und juggle resources, here you are welcome to take a break, listen to the birds and just enjoy playing a game.



No Goals, no Pressure
There is no goal and no end to reach in Hamlet in a Pond apart from your pond running out of space. But even then you can always adjust your little paradise, make changes, and design it according to your ideas.



A Unique Mix of Pixel Art in a 3D World
In Hamlet in a Pond you are creating a sanctuary for inhabitants of a 2D pixel art world in a 3D reality. And they bring with them their colourful houses, plants and animal friends.



Be Curious
You only start with a few simple structures: a house here, a tiny park there… but combine buildings with each other and unlock barns, ranches, apartment buildings and more. Stay curious and try out different combinations.



Explore
Pause for a moment and look what you created. Hamlet in A Pond invites you to explore your own village. Meet its inhabitants, count the sheep or zoom out and see your hamlet bustling.
