About this game
A fantasy life—and a business of your own
Leave the modern world behind and begin again in Valeheart Village. Dragon Ridge Valley is a single-player cozy fantasy shopkeeping RPG where you can build a new life, grow a business, craft valuable goods, form relationships, and explore a beautiful—but dangerous—magical valley.
Build your business
Begin with a humble market stall and work toward owning a permanent shop. Acquire your business license, purchase your property, and expand your shop through multiple upgrade levels.
Manage limited business inventory, transfer products into storage, and decide which goods to stock. Products placed into your business appear visibly on your shelves and displays. Open during market hours, serve customers, collect copper, silver, and gold, and reinvest your earnings into larger businesses and new opportunities.
Find, craft, and stock your goods
Gather ingredients, grow crops, mine ore, forage, cook meals, craft equipment and jewelry, trade with merchants, and recover valuable items while adventuring.
Item quality affects the value of your goods, while magical jewelry can provide buffs, blessings, and other useful effects. Decide what to keep for yourself and what belongs on your shop shelves.
Live in Valeheart Village
Create your character, purchase homes, and become part of a living medieval fantasy community. Meet villagers with their own routines and stories, build friendships, pursue romance, and make choices that shape your relationships.
Explore beyond the market
Travel beyond Valeheart’s warm, lantern-lit streets into forests, mines, forgotten ruins, and dangerous underground locations. Hunt, fight hostile creatures, discover rare resources, and uncover the mysteries surrounding the dragons of the valley.
