About the Game

Hard Worker is a multiplayer simulator about the life of working folk, where players make a living together. Take on any job - from long-haul trucking to construction work - earn your keep, climb the career ladder, and spend your hard earned money not just on new equipment, but on the simple joys of life: a cozy cottage in the countryside, fishing gear, or an instrument for evenings of song.

THE LONG ROAD UP

In this world, everything is fair. Everyone starts with humble jobs - hauling waste, doing odd construction work, or running small errands. But the harder you work, the more doors open for you: yesterday's laborer becomes a foreman, the foreman becomes a manager, and the most ambitious rise to become directors. Play the role of a quiet long-haul trucker, an outgoing foreman, or an ambitious manager - there's a place for every kind of worker here.

A VAST, LIVING WORLD

Endless fields, dusty country roads, bustling towns and cozy villages, rivers full of fish and hills with grazing cows. Seasons change and days unfold - morning mist over the river, the heat of midday in the fields, and a starry sky above the lonely night highway.

A JOB FOR EVERYONE

Choose your calling and live the life of a true hard worker. Hit the road in a multi-ton semi-truck, plow the fields on a powerful tractor, bring in the harvest behind the wheel of a combine, build new structures with your team, or sort cargo at the warehouse. Realistic vehicle physics, repairs, refueling, and maintenance - it's all just like real life, only more fun.

ONE BIG FAMILY

In this world, you're surrounded by real players - fellow hard workers, just like you. Here, people work shoulder to shoulder: the combine operator transfers grain into a teammate's grain truck, crews of builders raise structures together, a tow truck pulls a stranded buddy out of the ditch, and long-haul truckers chat over the radio on the lonely night highway. Help newcomers, share advice, find friends, and form your own crews. Here, the greatest wealth is the people you work with.

THERE'S MORE TO LIFE THAN WORK

When the shift ends, it's time to slow down. Grab a fishing rod and head to a quiet river where loyal friends are already waiting. Light a campfire, pour some tea from your thermos, pick up a guitar or accordion - and let a heartfelt song drift across the fields.
