About the Game
Trumpets in bottoms, horses with human faces, great gilded lettering framed by angels and lilies - nobody has vision like a medieval artist. Hey, that's you! Welcome to your very own illuminated manuscript workshop, the Scriptorium - a cozy, relaxing creative space with no timers and no pressure.
Create your own character in Story Mode, and take commissions from prestigious patrons in a kingdom overflowing with gossip. Illustrate battles and romances, decorate love letters and blackmail notes, design maps, masquerade balls, or, *cough*, bizarre artworks. With every request, you will help shape a royal drama that must be seen to be believed.
Prefer pure creativity? In Sandbox Mode, Scriptorium becomes your medieval “Canva”. Blank parchment, the entire library of medieval assets, and no clients or commissions - just you and your boundless imagination!
The composition screen is the creative heart of Scriptorium, where you decide how you want your masterpiece to look. Choose from light and dark parchments in many shapes and sizes, then drag and drop design elements directly onto your canvas. Work with a rich library of 1000+ pictures based on real medieval art - from beasts and bugs to princes and paupers, faces and butts, clothing, expressions, vegetation, oddments and decorative marginalia. Add text using medieval fonts adorned with ornate uppercase letters to complete your illuminated pages.
A colorful cast of clients brings you requests of all kinds - grand battles between snails and knights, wholesome scenes of peace, love, and the plague... and those aren't even the weird ones. But the customer is always right! Your job is to be creative and have fun as you fulfill their wishes in your own style. Spread your art across the kingdom and become celebrated by bards and historians for centuries to come.
Turn your Scriptorium into the coziest workshop in the kingdom. Spend your earnings to decorate your space with furniture, lighting, tapestries, flowers, windows, columns, and carpets - then make it truly yours with a pet companion by your side, from a purring cat to a loyal dog, or even a tiny dragon. Home is where the art is!
