About this game
Step into the bustling city of Salamanca in the 1910s, a place where tradition and innovation meet!
In Toymaker: Threads of Joy, you'll experience the art of toy crafting and the thrill of managing your very own shop. More than just any ordinary business venture, Toymaker is a journey filled with magic, folklore, and enchanting locals.
Each toy you craft and decision you make carries weight - will you uphold traditions of the past, or forge a new path? Dive into this enchanting blend of simulation, storytelling and management, where every moment is a chance to create something truly magical!
It's up to you to define what the next cherished plushie will be! Experience a chill and cozy crafting workshop. Unlock and collect materials, colors and patterns, craft the different parts that you want to mix.
Sew everything together and add beautiful details and trinkets to craft the perfect toy for their next adopter - with no time constraint, just creativity!
As the word gets out about your shop, customers will commission new toys and haggle for a better price. Make sure you understand their needs though! Your reputation will grow or decrease depending on your clientele’s treatment - a happy patron will recommend you to their friends!
Get to know your customers, and they’ll reward you with hidden stories and mysteries. Visit emblematic locations in Salamanca - its markets, squares, university and even the countryside! - in a captivating journey inspired by a folk legend and mythology.
Shape the destiny of Salamanca by following two distinct mythic paths with their own perks and storyline. Your choice will influence the future of the town and the legacy of your toy shop, so pick wisely!
