Painting a little paradise
You start with an empty patch of earth and a brush. Click and paint to scatter pine trees, flowers, rocks, houses, forts, and wandering critters like deer, horses, butterflies, and dragons. Brush settings control size, flow, lean, and grow speed, and you can drop logs and leaves that tumble in with real-time physics.
There is no winning here, just layering until the scene looks right. You thin the forest, move a cottage up the hill, add a frozen river, then change your mind and paint it back to grass.
Light, sound, and the final photo
Once the land is placed, you set the mood around it. Choose from twenty-four skies, rotate the sun, adjust snow, rain, and light, and add up to ten sound ambiances of birds, insects, water, and weather. Camera sliders let you frame the shot, and you can save stills up to 8k or stitch a panorama.
Tabletop players get something extra: a top-down view with square and hexagonal grids, plus high-resolution exports for battle maps. Your dragons finally get proper lodgings.
Good to know before you paint?
Do you need to learn 3D software first?
No. You pick tools from a toolbar and paint directly onto the terrain, adjusting size and density as you go. Importing your own models in OBJ format takes more fiddling, but the included library of hundreds of models is ready to brush on.
Can you make your own assets for a scene?
Yes, within limits. You can import OBJ files made in another modelling program, which suits medieval and fantasy props best. There is no workshop for sharing models, so your library is your own collection plus what ships with the program.
Can you use what you make elsewhere?
Yes for images and video. Save screenshots up to 8k, build panoramas, or record with your preferred capture app for covers, presentations, or story illustrations. You cannot export the 3D scene itself to edit in other software.
How long is a typical session?
As long as you want it to be. There are no turns or chapters, so you can spend ten minutes planting a grove or a whole evening refining light and camera angles for one picture.
