Why Early Access?


As you can see from our roadmap, we have big plans for Toy Shire. In order to accomplish those goals, we figured it would be best to involve the community during that process. This doesn't mean we think Toy Shire isn't ready yet, we hope that you'll find that the game has enough content for now and is polished well.

We want to get your feedback on the content that's ready as we work on those big updates for the future. Your feedback will allow us to make necessary changes and fine-tune the balancing of the game, so that we can make Toy Shire the best it can be. For any feedback, please join our Discord server, use the Steam Discussions forums, or leave a review!

For more information about Early Access, you can check out the Early Access Game section in our store page.
