About

【Setting and Era】 The stage is "Clockwork Earth," a mechanical planet where massive gears grind beneath the surface, and the very crust is maintained by an unknown, colossal steam engine. The era is the "Great Steam Age," where steam power and clockwork technology have evolved in unique ways. Brass-colored airships float in the sky, while steam-powered omnibuses and automatons traverse the streets. This is no soot-choked dystopia, but a pastoral and warm world where polished brass gleams and white steam shimmers in the sunlight. The currency used is Credits. 【Atmosphere and Society】 People live peaceful lives in cities where natural greenery and metallic architecture harmonize beautifully. The heat from steam engines warms their homes, and the rhythmic sound of gears serves as a comforting ambient backdrop to daily life. The society is filled with "healing" elements, such as public steam footbaths, hot springs, and clockwork cafes found throughout the streets. Each city possesses its own rich, distinct character. 【World Rules and Occupations】 In this world, people live by helping one another through specialized "Occupations." These roles are characterized by affectionate and respectful "Guild Names." - Handyman: "Tinker." The popular figures of the city who handle everything from finding lost items and repairing roofs to eliminating threats. - Mechanical Engineer: "Smith." They perform maintenance on automatons and steam engines. - Courier: "Glider." They deliver letters and packages using small steam-powered ornithopters. - Frontier Ranger: "Pathfinder." They investigate dangerous zones outside the urban areas. Players primarily take on the role of a "Tinker," touching the kindness of this world while solving the daily troubles of its inhabitants. 【Threats and Adventure】 Step beyond the warm boundaries of the city, and you'll find a wilderness of untouched nature and ancient mechanical ruins. The threats to adventurers are not malicious humans, but primarily the following three: 1. Wildlife: Beasts and birds that have evolved uniquely to adapt to steam and metallic environments. 2. Rogue Machines: Autonomous heavy machinery or ancient automatons from old-world ruins that have gone haywire due to lack of maintenance. 3. Natural Environment: Giant geysers that suddenly erupt with boiling water, exposed sections of the great gears moving the crust (Gear Falls), and extreme climate shifts. Tinkers use their wisdom and clockwork tools (Steam Gadgets) to deal with these threats—not by "destroying" them, but by "calming" or "repairing" them to maintain the balance between nature and machinery. 【Objective】 Accept letters from clients, interact with city residents, venture into the dangerous wilds, and rescue lost automatons deep within ruins. Amidst the scent of oil and the aroma of warm tea, a modest and heartwarming yet exciting daily adventure awaits Guest. This is not an adventure to change the world, but an adventure to protect the small happinesses found within it.
