Creator Chronicles Planning tools for guild masters
Hardware, plot order, and party seats you can fill before 14 September 2026.
These tools are checklists, not live calculators that scrape Steam. Creator Chronicles is a single-player guild sim: you rebuild a village, invite members, and send parties into dungeons. The Steam client unlocks on 14 September 2026 at 08:00 UTC for Windows and macOS. The public demo closes on 13 September 2026, and demo saves do not carry over. Use this hub to plan a first chronicle, not to import a save that will vanish.
Open the child pages when a specific bottleneck shows up:
- System requirements — Windows and macOS minimums versus the higher recommended RAM and GPU, plus what the demo asked for.
- Village planner — demolish order, house cap, farm and fields, alchemy lab, windmill, north mine, roads, and why the next building always costs more gold.
- Party planner — the three-seat Hidden Swamp triangle, a second parallel crew for alchemy, and Conqueror risk.
When to open which page
If the store page GPU line worries you, stay on system requirements. Full-game Windows minimum is 8 GB RAM and a GTX 1050-class GPU; recommended RAM is 32 GB. The demo used a lighter 4 GB floor; do not confuse the two.
If gold evaporates every time you click Build, open the village planner. Housing is one house per member. Farms need fields. The mine only sits on northern land and wants food. Roads double walk speed. The auction is an in-fiction market, not live multiplayer. Pair that page with the village buildings guide when you want screenshots of the loop instead of a checklist.
If Hidden Swamp keeps wiping, open the party planner, then the party tier list and combat guide. The first cave wants three people: tank, healer, damage. A second party can brew while the first crawls. Hall of Battle is asynchronous PvP in the full build, not a reason to wait for a friend.
How these tools relate to the rest of the wiki
The getting started walkthrough is still the first hour. Tools sit beside it so you can pause the village, answer one question, and unpause. Rankings live on the tier list hub. Named invites live on the roster. Launch timing lives on the launch notes. Official store and studio links live on official links.
Do not treat a planner as a patch. If a 1.0 note contradicts a checkbox here, believe the patch and come back. Pause, spend gold on staffed buildings, and only then send a party that can actually come home.
Frequently Asked Questions

Houses, farm, fields, then the alchemy lab. The village planner and village guide walk that order.
How do I plan a Hidden Swamp party?
Use the party planner and the party tier list: one tank, one healer, one damage seat.
Are these tools official Origin Studio utilities?
No. They are fan checklists. Confirm dates on the launch notes and hardware on the Steam page via official links.
Will a demo village import into these planners?
Demo saves do not carry into 1.0. Sketch a new plot on the village planner after 14 September 2026.
