Haspelknecht will take you back to the early days of coal mining in the 16th century in the Ruhr Valley. The players will play as farmers who will try to exploit coal on their land in the southern Ruhr. During this period, the land was mainly covered with forests and roads. The coal was almost at the surface. During the game, players will acquire the necessary knowledge, expand their farm and dig deeper to get more coal.
Several paths will be possible to win.
