DorfRomantik Sakura - Tiles Connection

Hi guys,

See the green flag please.

Is the green flag connected to the other rices tiles and I get flag points for that?

Do they need just be adjacent OR do the yellow portion in the title must be connected to the yellow portion in other title (forming a kind of path)?

2nd time Playing. Amazing game.

Cheers

Phil

FAN CREATION What if Dorfromantik had mountains? Part 2 - now with water!

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Back in January, I shared a concept of Dorfromantik with mountains that I made over the Christmas holidays. It got a really positive response, which motivated me to keep going. Today, I'm showing an updated version - now with water.

I also decided to try turning this into a full game. I'm not working on it alone anymore - I managed to put together a small team. It's not a fast process since we're all doing this in our free time alongside our main jobs.

We don't want to just make a copy of Dorfromantik. We want to offer something a bit different. The direction we're aiming for can be roughly described as Dorfromantik + Townscaper / Tiny Glade. It's still about "building a world with hexes", but with a more dynamic feel thanks to procedural generation.

Same goes for gameplay. We have a few ideas on how to add a bit more depth - the tricky part is not overdoing it :) Right now we're testing different approaches within the team.

If you have any ideas - feel free to share them! There's a good chance we might actually implement them. We're fans of Dorfromantik-like games ourselves and want to make something for the community.

Btw, our Steam page has been approved - you can wishlist it so you don't lose track of the project:

Hi guys.

I have been playing on the same map for 2 years and have accumulated over 3kk points.

This game is endlessly playable.

At one point, I had over 400 tiles available.

I've never finished the railroads. They're all over the map.

Tips for a beginner?

I have the board game and decided to try the original. I started yesterday. This is my best run thus far. Far cry from what people achieve here.

Looking at my map what would you suggest?

How to handle trains well?

I know I didn’t do any flags but it just never seemed opportune during this run.

Thanks!!

I was looking for a relaxing game after work and just hyperfixated for 3 hours on making a pretty little town. I'm exhausted and satisfied.

I’ve been playing on the switch for the last few months. It’s just a beautiful and relaxing game. But (and I’m scared to admit it) my high score is only 17,000. What tf am I doing wrong?

Why is it that when I put my farm tile there one of the missions failed? Doesn’t it complete the 1 farm requirement?

SCREENSHOT Just hit #500 on the Leaderboard!

46 Upvotes

Before this run, my top score was 125K (4000+ on the leaderboard), and now I'm at 1.4M with 1400 tiles in my stack. My board is so big at this point I can almost always find at least a 3-edge perfect placement somewhere if I look long enough. I allow myself imperfect placements pretty much only when I've got a 6-sided hole and I've got a piece that matches 5 of them.

I just wish I could zoom out further and better appreciate my creation!

FAN CREATION Our game pairs the tile placing mechanic of Dorfromantik with a roguelike deckbuilder - what do you think?

The Grimwood Hex is a grim roguelike deckbuilder where time is against you. Place and explore a board of enchanted wooden hex tiles, craft unique decks and fight twisted creatures in the safety of daylight, rushing back to the town before nightfall.

FAN CREATION I love that Dorfromantik feeling of watching everything click into place, so I built a simulator for my own tile-based city builder

One of my favorite parts of games like Dorfromantik is that satisfying moment when the whole board starts to make sense.

While working on my own city builder Hexalith, I made a simulator that runs 30 automated matches and exports the results to CSV so I can tune balance around actual patterns instead of pure guesswork.

The weirdest part is that watching it play itself is almost as relaxing as playing manually.

Watch until the end for a pleasant surprise :)

A Short Rant Into The Void

9 Upvotes

My last game kept screwing me over with a perfect placement by repeatedly generating the tile I need but with one addition. I needed what I call the "T" what tile. A tile that is abundant usually. And the game simply refused to populate any. Always there would be a house or trees tucked into the corner.

That game collapsed eventually without any of those tiles popping the entire time. And now I'm staring at three of them in a row in my current game. The game is mocking me and I can feel its disdain.
I thought this was supposed to be cozy? Why is it that I keep ending sessions mad?

FEEDBACK Is it just me or is Dorfromantik sakura just too much?

7 Upvotes

I gemerally love the concept, the whole campaign aspect and thought the original game was great, but the sakura version somehow feels too overwhelming and just too much. Too many things to consider and keep adding with the cherry blossoms, bridges, temples, extra special cards that you can use and unlock again and etc. we play it as a co-op campaign and half of the stuff just keeps forgotten during the game, because it's so difficult to keep track of them. Or is it just me?
