✦ Hoardhand ✦

🪙 Sort loot, earn gold, and slowly build a better life.

Hoardhand is a cozy fantasy sorting game where you work at the Guild’s loot table, unpacking bags brought back by adventurers and sorting everything into the right places.

At the start, you’re barely getting by. You sleep at the inn, pay for your bed after each workday, and try to save whatever gold you can. Little by little, you’ll improve your skills, climb the Guild ranks, move into better housing, and eventually work toward a place of your own.

✨ What’s in the game?

• Satisfying loot sorting

• Mouse-only gameplay

• Coins, weapons, gems, herbs, potions, scrolls, books, valuables, and relics

• Rank progression through the Guild

• Promotion Trials

• A simple Skill Tree with permanent upgrades

• Bonus Bags and extra rewards

• Housing progression from a rented bed to a real home

• Curated pixel-art items and a fantasy workshop atmosphere

🎒 The main loop

Take a job → sort the loot → earn gold → improve your setup → move up in the Guild

Most regular jobs let you play at your own pace, so the focus is on satisfying sorting and steady progress. When you’re ready, Promotion Trials give you a tougher challenge.

🏠 Build your life

You don’t start as a wealthy collector or a hero.

You start as a worker.

Each completed job moves the day forward. At first, part of your earnings goes to the inn and the Guild’s share. As you keep playing, you can work toward better living conditions and more independence.

Inn Bed → Tiny Room → Small House → Town House → Guild Home

The better your home, the more stable your life becomes.

📚 Find better loot

As your rank increases, jobs get richer and more varied.

You’ll sort things like:

• gold and silver

• swords and equipment

• crystals and gemstones

• herbs and alchemy items

• scrolls, ledgers, journals, and books

• luxury goods

• rare relics

Some finds are common.

Some are valuable.

Some are special enough to make a whole run feel worth it.

🌱 A small note from the developer

Hoardhand is the first game I’ve ever released.

For me, this isn’t the finish line — it’s the beginning.

I’m still learning, improving, experimenting, and I plan to make many more games after this one. My goal is simple: with every project, make something better than the last.

I want to keep building games, trying new ideas, and eventually create things I can be genuinely proud of.

If you play Hoardhand this early in my journey, thank you for being here at the start. 💛

Are you looking for any help from a developer, artist, animator, or designer?

Thanks for reaching out! I’m developing Hoardhand solo for now, so I’m not looking to bring anyone onto the project at the moment. But if you’ve played the game, I’d really appreciate any feedback you have!

I haven’t played your game yet but I’ll definitely play it and give you my feedback. Btw, would you be comfortable connecting on Discord or Instagram, if that’s easier for you?
