Seasons
A full year takes about three hours of play, so you will watch your settlement go through every season. Same island, same view: look at how much changes.
Trees leaf out again and crops grow at their fastest. Planting opens as soon as the snow is gone.
The steady season for farming and building, and the season of thunderstorms.
Leaves turn orange and red and drift down from the trees. Growth slows, so it is time to stock up.
Snow settles over the islands and the sea freezes. Nothing grows, and nothing can be planted until spring.
The game
Calmaria looks peaceful, but every pipe, crop and building has a job. Here is what you will be doing.
Gather wood, plant wheat and raise your first workshop, then grow into mills, bakeries, kitchens and a forge.
Lay out blueprints and deliver materials a little at a time, upgrade buildings through three tiers, and tear things down for a refund when your plans change.
Every island has moisture, fertility and pollution, and every building and crop nudges them. Pumping water dries the ground, harvests tire the soil, trees clean the air and compost helps it recover.
Keep hens, cows and bees, and stand guard when worms and mites come for your fields and fences.
Pump your first well by hand, then store water in barrels and tanks and send it through wooden, metal and diamond pipes, even raised on gantries.
Sprinklers water the fields for you, pumps at the shore draw from the sea, and a steam generator turns water into power.
Prefer a personal touch? The garden hose waters crops by hand. Just mind the leaks from open pipe ends.
Rain rolls in, darkens the scene and leaves the ground wet and shining while it waters your crops and refills the island's groundwater.
In a summer thunderstorm, lightning can strike and damage a building (it never destroys one), and the spot burns for a few seconds.
Winter brings snow instead. It does not water anything, but the deeper it piles, the stronger the spring thaw that refills your soil.
Dungeon entrances appear on the islands, and their look tells you what waits below: a stone crypt, a rocky cave or a mine shaft.
Cross rooms of timed traps, from spikes and fire jets to swinging blades, and face bosses whose attacks light up the ground before they land.
Open sealed chests with a key or by solving their puzzles, and carry the loot home.
Build a dock and a boat, then sail the archipelago. Every island has its own character and resources, from iron and coal to diamonds.
Bigger boats carry more crew and cargo, a dock upgrade unlocks autopilot between docks, and cargo ships ferry goods between your islands.
Watch the calendar, though: when winter freezes the sea, boats stay put until the thaw.
Swing swords and two-handers, shoot bows or cast with staffs and wands, with fire, lightning and cold on top. Start as an Archer, Mage, Warrior or Farmer and grow your attributes as you go.
Craft and upgrade gear at the forge, and build fences and towers to protect your fields when the waves come.
Drone stations carry goods between your buildings, and farm drones harvest and replant your crops.
Settlers who sail in looking for a home can be invited to stay: they eat, sleep, help defend the island and take standing orders to plant, harvest or haul.
Steam generators and power poles bring electricity to your production buildings.
Invite friends through Steam and share one world: one settlement, one level and one tech progression. The host runs the world and approves who joins.
Split the chores, one farming while another fights, then sail out together and take on dungeons that scale with your party.

FAQ
Calmaria: Wild Growth is a cozy island builder. You turn a bare shore into a living settlement: you farm, build your own water network, run production chains, sail between islands, explore dungeons and hand the chores to drones and settlers, while the seasons turn around you.
Yes. The free demo is available from the game's Steam page. It gives you about 2 hours of play on your first island, and it wraps up sooner if you sail away from that island. Co-op works in the demo too, as long as everyone has the same version.
A full year takes about 3 hours of play, so each season lasts roughly 45 minutes. Crops grow fastest in spring and slowest in autumn, nothing grows or can be planted in winter, and the sea freezes over so you can walk on the ice while boats wait for the thaw. A bar at the top of the screen shows where you are in the year.
Cozy in tone, with gentle pressure. You keep an eye on hunger and thirst, enemy waves go after your crops, fences and buildings, and dungeons offer a bigger challenge when you feel ready. Prepare well and the island stays calm.
Yes. Every island tracks moisture, fertility and pollution, and every building and crop shifts them. Pumping water dries the ground, harvesting tires the soil, trees clean the air and compost helps it recover, so your layout and your care change your harvests.
Drone stations carry goods between buildings, farm drones harvest and replant your crops, and settlers you invite to stay can take standing orders to plant, harvest and haul. Later, steam generators and power poles bring electricity to your production buildings.
Yes. Build a dock and a boat to sail the archipelago, where islands differ in soil, water and resources. Dungeon entrances on the islands lead underground to traps, bosses and sealed chests.
Yes. Invite friends through Steam, up to four players in one session, and share a single world, level and tech progression. The host runs the world and approves who joins, and everyone needs the same version of the game.
You earn XP, level up and spend tech points to unlock the next buildings and recipes: water tools, boats, electricity, drones and more. A few milestones ask you to build something first, like a dock or a steam generator, so the settlement grows with you.
Calmaria: Wild Growth is made for Windows PC and distributed through Steam. The game is playable in English and Polish.
