Keyhaven

A little town that works while you do.

Keyhaven is an idle game on floating islands, spread across your Stream Deck. Every key is an island with a building on it, earning gold in a rhythm of its own. You level them up, hire workers and make a few choices that cannot be unmade. It goes on working while the computer is off.

One price, the whole game. No ads, no purchases, no network.

The town at its real speed, while a whole day's light passes over it

Six islands, six trades

The farm pays every two seconds, the harbour every ten minutes, and the lumber camp, quarry, smithy and market lie in between. Tap an island to gather its gold; hold it to buy levels. Hire a worker and the island gathers by itself from then on.

Pay doubles at levels 10, 25, 50, 100 and beyond, and buildings are rebuilt larger as they grow: a shed and a field become a barn and a silo, and then an estate.

The light is your own time of day

The islands are drawn in the light of the hour it is where you are. Morning turns to noon, the golden hour comes, windows light up at dusk, the forge glows, and at night the lighthouse sweeps its beam across the water. Nothing is fetched for this: it reads your clock.

Charters: choices that last

At levels 25, 50 and 100 each building offers a charter, one of two paths that cannot be undone. Triple this farm, or a fifth more for every building? Twice as fast, or cheaper levels? Two players end up with different towns, and each new town is a chance to try another.

Worth a glance, never a duty

The ship is in. When the harbour's ship arrives, the whole town earns double for a minute. — The ship is inWhen the harbour's ship arrives, the whole town earns double for a minute.

The merchant calls. Now and then: a purse of gold, or a rush in which everything earns triple. Ignoring him costs nothing. — The merchant callsNow and then: a purse of gold, or a rush in which everything earns triple. Ignoring him costs nothing.

New towns on new lands

When the harbour has grown, you can move on. A new town starts small, but you take crowns with you: each one kept makes everything earn a tenth more, and crowns can be spent on perks that last. Every land looks different and has a rule of its own.

The rest of it

Goals: Fifty-seven in a town. There is always a next thing worth doing, and a reward for doing it.
Workers: Six of them, each with a name and a perk of their own.
The trade chain: The market earns more for every level of the trades that supply it.
Perks: Longer nights away, a head start, stronger trade winds, cheaper levels. Bought with crowns, kept for good.
Buy in bulk: A hold buys one level, ten, twenty-five, or as many as you can afford.
Calm: One switch stops the drifting clouds, the swaying wheat and the smoke.
Sound: Soft and sparse: a coin, a chime for a goal, a horn when the ship comes in. One switch turns it off.
Paced by simulation: A player who only looks in now and then reaches the market on day one, the harbour on day four, and a new town within a week.

Two editions

Keyhaven Lite is free and stays free. It has the first three islands in one town, which is enough to find out whether a town on your keys suits you. Keyhaven is the whole game. A Lite town is not carried over.

On every Stream Deck

Put Town on every key of a page. With eight keys the first six are the islands and the last two the treasury and the town hall. On bigger decks the keys between them become shortcuts to goals, workers and the rest. On a smaller deck, such as a Stream Deck Mini, the islands are shown a few at a time, and a tap on the treasury turns to the next.

On a Neo, the Infobar keeps the score
