Hanok: From Thatch to Palace

pond, and a garden pavilion. Each piece carries its real name and a line explaining why it goes where it goes.Create — your own town.210 pieces: thatched and tiled houses, palace halls, government offices, walls and gates, corridors, streams, bridges and city ramparts, rice paddies, market stalls, lanterns, 40 townsfolk and 8 farm animals. Drag to lay whole walls, paths and paddies at once. Double-click a placed piece to turn it, or press R before you set it down. Build a market street of open-front shops, awnings and a cattle market. Six commissions give you goals: a farming village, a market street, a nobleman's house, a village of nobles, a palace throne-hall compound, and the royal rear garden.Walk it at four hours of the day.Dawn mist, daylight, sunset and moonlit night — after dark the window paper glows from inside and the lanterns light the lanes. Step in and walk your own town as the king in his dragon robe: up onto the wooden floors, through the gates, into the rooms. Eleven pieces of traditional Korean music play while you build.Build free.In house-building mode the parts are yours. Follow the old rules of order — or switch them off and build whatever you like: a huge thatched hall, a U-shaped courtyard house, anything the pieces allow. Then place what you built into your town.After release.More palace buildings — the queen's residence and the crown prince's quarters — and more village life are planned as free updates.Music: "Gugak BGM" series (#35, #44, #45, #61, #80, #81, #111, #118, #129, #199, #246) by ITN Co.
