Starting the demo

Download the complete ZIP for your computer and extract it fully.
Windows: open Artheria_Demo.exe. Keep the accompanying Artheria_Demo.pck in the same folder.
Mac: open the included app. It supports Intel and Apple Silicon. It is ad-hoc signed but not notarized by Apple. If macOS blocks it, review Apple’s official instructions and open it only if you trust its source. Do not disable system-wide protection.
Choose New Journey. The village is prepared in the background; its first graphics preparation can take longer.

What should I do?

Speak to Levin at the bakery. Follow your journal and the golden destination marker, meet Berta and Henning, and help with the village’s first loaf of bread. There is no time limit. The demo ends after Story 1; it does not include the full 50-story game.
