Shepherd's Keeper

Walk in truth, one day at a time

Shepherd's Keeper is a Scripture-centered shepherding and homestead game about bringing faith into daily life. Daily Scripture, care for creation, meaningful work and days of rest are woven into a hand-painted world where the ordinary moments matter.

Daily Scripture and a life of faith

Make room for daily Scripture and reflection as you tend your flock, care for your home and follow the changing year. Walking in truth is at the heart of the experience: learning, caring and putting what you learn into practice through daily life.

Different paths, a welcome for every player

Players from different backgrounds can choose among the game's calendar and observance paths: Weekly, Hebrew, Lunar, Lunar-Solar, Solar and Sunday. Choose the path that fits your practice, or explore the options as you learn. The game makes room for different approaches to the week, the calendar and days of rest.

Torah observance when that path is chosen

For players who choose a Torah-observant path, Torah observance is central to the experience. Daily Scripture, Sabbath rest and the appointed times shape the rhythm of life, including when ordinary work gives way to observance. This is a meaningful part of the chosen path, alongside the game's other calendar and observance options.

Care for your flock and make a home

Lead sheep and goats from the fold, call them with your whistle and work alongside your faithful dog. Gather milk, shear wool and tend your animals. Grow and water a garden, gather wood and stone, craft tools, and build and furnish your home.

From fleece to finished cloth

Spin wool into yarn and weave decorative hangings for your home. Take part in hands-on crafting activities, or use the available mini-game settings for quicker results.

Live through the seasons

Watch rain, autumn leaves and winter snow change the valley. Rake leaves for compost, clear snowy paths, make snow cream, throw snowballs and build snow figures. Cut an ice-fishing hole in the frozen pond, explore the woods and visit the mine.

Play on your own, with multiplayer planned

Shepherd's Keeper is being developed for both single-player and multiplayer. Multiplayer is a planned feature and is still in development; details will be shared as it becomes ready.

Faith, daily Scripture and the freedom to choose your path belong alongside the simple pleasures of tending a flock and returning to a home you have made your own.
