Embark on a lifetime of adventure in a beautiful world of creativity and intrigue. Raise a family, customise your farm, run a business, craft items, and battle some marvellously malevolent monsters.
Your actions and decisions matter in our adventurous story filled with purpose and promise. Lend a helping hand to villagers in need and discover the unique blend of creativity and choice that sets Kynseed apart. Come and join us - your legacy awaits!
Story based RPG set in beautiful regions with battles against dark faery tale creatures.
Customise your farm and farmhouse using Kynseed's new customisation mode with hundreds of items and limitless design possibilities.
Run a business such as a blacksmith, apothecary, or goods store.

Combat the evil Hob army as they construct powerful totems and cause the destruction of crops and buildings.
Rebuild broken houses and buildings for your neighbours and new NPCs.
Gather materials to create items, forge weapons or mix cures for bizarre maladies.
Buy strange artifacts from the mysterious Mr. Fairweather - items that can aid your chores, help you in combat, or just let you mess with the world. But be warned of his life tax; each item must be paid with years of your life!
A world where everyone ages - raise a family then step into your children's shoes and continue your legacy.
In Kynseed, live your life the way you choose in a lovingly handcrafted 2D open world. It’s a beautiful RPG adventure from a couple of tea-making veterans of the Fable series.
