Announcing Craftlands Workshoppe - The Next Step in the Shoppe Keep Universe
Hello all,
We're very excited to announce the next step in the Shoppe Keep universe: a brand new game called Craftlands Workshoppe!
Craftlands Workshoppe will launch in the first half of 2020.
Get ready for a new adventure in the Shoppe Keep universe!
Become an alchemist, a blacksmith or a chef as you’re handed the role of running Allcraft’s Workshoppe in a new fantasy world amongst the clouds.
Strangefire Studios’ next game takes the Shoppe Keep universe in a bold new direction
Craft and sell potions, weapons and meals
Train and hire employees to expand your fantasy Shoppe
Explore a brand new world amongst the clouds and get to know the locals
As you'll notice from the name and the logo, this is a brand new game, with a hint of Shoppe Keep. The game is a fantasy business sim of sorts, and is developed by head developer of the Shoppe Keep games, Arvydas Žemaitis.
That said, this is a brand new game which stands apart from Shoppe Keep in a lot of ways - it's isometric, for instance. It revolves not so much around running a Shoppe yourself but instead hiring, training and managing employees. The game allows you to choose from three routes/classes at the beginning of the game: alchemist, blacksmith or chef.
Don't expect a Shoppe Keep 3, because that's not what this game is. Craftlands Workshoppe is a brand new game, with a hint of Shoppe Keep.
