We've also noticed some comments about how Tinkerlands resembles other popular games like Terraria, Forager, Necesse and many others mentioned (even Minecraft 😄). It's a huge compliment for us and yep, you caught us! We’re big fans of Terraria and Forager and we were inspired by these awesome titles. But here's the scoop: our main goal is to blend all the best features from different games to create the ultimate adventure experience. And hey, this free prologue? It's just the beginning! We've got big plans for the Early Access version, and it's gonna be positively different from this prologue and include numerous cool features! Stay tuned, cause we’re going to share a little sneak peek of it in the next post 😉
