You play as a villager king, building up his own village and expanding it.
You gather resources such as wood, coal, iron, gold, diamond and corn/pumpkins from farmfields and with these you can buy
new items/props/buildings in shop and the corn & pumpkin you harvest to make food out of it.
The villagers in you village need food and you need to supply them with stuff (Which you put inside the chest, so the villagers can search/take it to be able to do their jobs).
