Scriptorium: Master of Manuscripts
About
Trumpets in bottoms, horses with human faces, grand gilded lettering framed by angels and liliesâno one sees quite like a medieval artist. Hey, thatâs you! Welcome to your very own illuminated manuscript workshop, Scriptoriumâa cozy, relaxing creative space with no timers and no pressure.
-
Create your own character in Story Mode and take commissions from prestigious patrons in a kingdom overflowing with gossip. Illustrate battles and romances, embellish love letters and blackmail notes, design maps, masquerade balls, or, *ahem*, bizarre artworks. With every request, youâll help shape a royal drama that has to be seen to be believed.
-
Prefer pure creativity? In Sandbox Mode, Scriptorium becomes your medieval âCanva.â Blank parchment, the full library of medieval assets, and no clients or commissionsâjust you and your boundless imagination!
Â

Â
The composition screen is the creative heart of Scriptorium, where you decide exactly how your masterpiece will look. Choose from light and dark parchments in many shapes and sizes, then drag and drop design elements directly onto your canvas. Work with a rich library of 1,000+ images based on real medieval artâfrom beasts and bugs to princes and paupers, faces and bottoms, clothing, expressions, vegetation, curios, and decorative marginalia. Add text using medieval fonts adorned with ornate uppercase letters to complete your illuminated pages.

A colorful cast of clients brings you all manner of requestsâgrand battles between snails and knights, wholesome scenes of peace, love, and the plague... and those arenât even the strangest ones. But the customer is always right! Your job is to be creative and have fun as you fulfill their wishes in your own style. Spread your art across the kingdom and earn the praise of bards and historians for centuries to come.
Â

Turn your Scriptorium into the coziest workshop in the kingdom. Spend your earnings to decorate your space with furniture, lighting, tapestries, flowers, windows, columns, and carpetsâthen make it truly your own with a pet companion at your side, from a purring cat to a loyal dog, or even a tiny dragon. Home is where the art is!
