The game is set in a world roughly based on the lore of both the Norse and the Celts and features characters and creatures of fantasy which inhabit the lands surrounding the village. The goal is to establish and grow a village successfully in the wilderness of a fantasy kingdom, clearing out all nearby threats. The sectors did not have a physical border to them, no idea if they triggered anything in terms of loading. The enemies tended to stay in their sector, maybe unless they were raiding, and I think you may have been told how many of them were still alive in the sector, maybe with a generated name like "The Thorny Hold of Hobgoblins" although I might be channeling Dwarf Fortress there. The part I remember was kind of an open field with some trees, rocks, and bushes breaking things up. I don't remember if there were other maps or dungeons to explore. I remember that one of the annoying bits in the game was that it wasn't uncommon for enemies to be shooting at you from just outside of your viewpoint. It was 3D graphics, I think, although I think it maintained something like an isometric angle looking down at the character. I have this vague recollection that it was not quite finished at the time I got a Steam key for it, and new features were still being added. You could pick from a variety of starting profiles (it kind of mixed races and classes from the traditional RPG setup so you could be an Elf or a Warrior or a Peasant) that gave you various perks. What was a bit different was that you were defending a village, and gathering resources for it at the same time, maybe also building buildings and designating people in specialist roles (blacksmiths, crafters, etc). Much like Diablo, you were running around an open area and fighting monsters, I think primarily with melee weapons. I think I got a copy of this about 5-6 years ago, although I'm not certain.
