🌟 Why Prosperity?

Vanilla villages often feel static, repetitive, and empty. Once you've traded for a few enchants, there is little reason to care about the people living there.

Prosperity expands your world with living, evolving medieval settlements where every villager has a name, personality, RPG stats, and unique backstory. Encounter ruined houses that need your architectural help, hire stalwart knights to patrol the borders against raids, appoint a town mayor to oversee treasury trade, and help down-on-their-luck citizens find their footing again.
