# What is Bloomshire?
The game, in one page.
A pixel-art farming and life-skills RPG, played in the browser, in a world shared with other players.
You start on a neglected farm with a borrowed hoe. Everything after that is yours to build.

## A world that keeps its own time
Bloomshire runs on its own clock and calendar. Shops open and close. Villagers walk to work in the morning and go home at night. Fish that will not touch your line at noon will take it after dark.
Seasons turn, and they decide what will grow. Rain comes when it comes, and waters your fields for you.
Autumn outside the Clover Inn.
## Regions with their own character
Each region has its own landscape, crops, resources, fish and quests. The timber and the first things that bite are in the wood. Every metal and gem in the game comes out of the mountains. The best fishing is on the coast, and half the catch bites nowhere else.
Getting into each one means earning it.
## Skills worth committing to
Ten skills, each with its own long climb. Levels open real things: a crop you could not grow before, a fish that will finally bite, a seam you can finally break, a recipe, an animal.
They also lean on each other. A cook who never farms will stall. So will a smith who never mines. Going wide is usually faster than going deep.
## An economy players actually run
Sell to the town for a fair, fixed price, or list your goods on the Community Marketplace and let other players decide what they are worth. Everything on that board came out of somebody's bag.
## What comes next
Six more regions are planned, along with two NFT collections and a project token. None of that is live. [Game Status](/introduction/game-status.md) lays out exactly what is finished and what is not.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:
```
GET https://docs.bloomshire.xyz/introduction/what-is-bloomshire.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
