Our take on New Frontier Days ~Founding Pioneers~
The defining structure is a frontier settlement built through assigned pioneer labor: gathered resources feed production buildings, while invention cards and three modes shape how the town develops.
What is New Frontier Days ~Founding Pioneers~?
Command pioneers as they establish a settlement in new territory.
Assign them to activities such as cutting timber, extracting minerals, hunting, and fishing, then use gathered materials in buildings that turn logs into lumber, wool into textiles, and plants into crops. Wild animals can become pets, accompany pioneers during gathering, assist with hunting, or carry riders. Progress grants access to more than 290 Invention Cards with effects including shorter harvest cycles and longer fishing periods. Story Mode follows the town’s development toward a city, Survival Mode offers five difficulty levels, and Free Mode removes game-over conditions while allowing unrestricted use of collected cards.
