It contains high mountain ranges with limited passable areas, deep rocky valleys, varied woodlands, grasslands and fields, desert, and a network of dirt roads, which a player may use to navigate or fast travel if they choose. The Medieval Engineers landscape is a spheroid voxel-based planet, approximately 10 game-kilometers in radius, which is fully explorable by the player. Crossbows may be used to assault enemies or hunt deer (for food and hides) from a distance. Weapons such as a club, studded club, and sword can defend from hostile NPCs (barbarians) as well as other human players, and attack structures directly. Players can also use hand-tools to construct large blocks, fell and process trees, and reshape the landscape, leveling for building purposes or digging to mine resources and form defensive trenches and mounds. As a sandbox game, win conditions are not defined but can be arranged separately by the players involved. In a multi-player world, individual players may each claim territory, or share claimed territory, create "houses," build castles and defenses, then create siege engines to attack other player's or house's castles. The player may combine these along with other small-block items to create battering rams, catapults, trebuchets, and siege towers, which use realistic physics based on mass, density, tension, and inertia. The small block items, and particularly the torsion bar, rope drum, axle (called a catch block), hand crank, projectiles, and rope ends are key features of Medieval Engineers, as they enable siege warfare. Small blocks such as timber, wheels for carts and siege equipment, furniture and crafting workstations serve aesthetic, interactive, and/or functional roles. Large blocks such as walls, roofing and palisades determine structural integrity and may collapse under their own weight if not built carefully or if damaged in an attack. Blocks may be structural, functional, interactive, or aesthetic, and are grouped into two basic types: large and small. The player controls a single character, the engineer, and builds structures, from small shacks to entire castles and even towns, using pre-defined building blocks. On February 19, 2015, Medieval Engineers was released as an early access game on the Steam platform, and the full version was released on March 17, 2020. It was developed and published by Czech developer Keen Software House. Medieval Engineers is a voxel-based sandbox computer game set on an unnamed Earth-like planetoid without water that can be explored, mined, manipulated, and deformed.
