Field notes

The controls let visitors walk, turn, jump, look around, and advance the hour or month; a weather view and separate Chronicle are also listed. The description says households farm strips in three open fields, manage livestock and stores, and pay rent and tithe, while weather affects harvests. It also says villagers have distinct dispositions and memories, with a small AI model planning daily activity and generating encounters.
