All 18 Resources and Where to Get Them in Fabledom

Fabledom is a relaxed fairytale city builder where you grow a small village into a kingdom and look after its residents, called Fablings. Most of what you build and everything your people need comes from resources. Food keeps your Fablings fed, wood and stone let you build, coal keeps them warm in winter, and iron becomes the armaments your soldiers carry. Learning how each of these is gathered, made and stored is the key to a kingdom that runs smoothly.

How Resources Work in Fabledom

Resources come from buildings in two ways. Some buildings gather raw goods straight from the land, like lumber camps cutting trees or stone camps working a stone deposit. Others turn those raw goods into something more useful, such as a sawmill making planks from wood. Your Fablings staff these buildings and haul goods where they're needed, and anything extra is kept in a stockpile until it's used.

Most goods depend on one another, so it helps to think of them as chains. Wood feeds both planks and coal, and Grain feeds bread and prismatic liquid, so a gap early in a chain slows everything that comes after it. Keep the parts of each chain close together, and place workplaces near the homes of the Fablings who work there, since long walks slow production.

Food: What Fablings Eat and How to Grow It

Food is the first resource to get right, since residents go home to eat. Vegetables are the first crop to unlock and the easiest to get going, and each farm grows either Vegetables or Grain, never both.

Bread takes more work. Grain from wheat fields goes to a windmill to become Flour, and Flour goes to a bakery to become Bread. The bakery is usually the slowest step, and one windmill can keep one bakery supplied.

Fish comes from fish stands rather than farms, and it keeps coming through winter. Eggs come from Large chicken coops, which turn Grain into Eggs. Pork is raised at a Pigsty from Vegetables, with 4 Vegetables making 1 Pork, and only Commoners and Nobles eat it.

Winter is when food gets tested. During the cold months, it helps to move some farmers to lumber camps or coal areas, then send them back to the fields in spring. Having several kinds of food on hand also helps, since no single one runs out as fast.

Who Eats What: Peasants, Commoners and Nobles

Each class of Fabling eats a different mix, and that decides which foods your town needs. Peasants eat Homegrown, Vegetables, Fish, Eggs and Bread. Commoners eat Vegetables, Fish, Eggs, Bread and Pork. Nobles eat Eggs, Bread, Pork, Grapes and Grape juice.

Bread and Eggs are the only foods all three classes eat, so they're the safest to keep in stock. Grain and Flour are never eaten, so they only count as ingredients. Homegrown comes from attachments on Peasant Homesteads and stays in that home.

Wood, Planks and Coal Explained

Wood is the base for much of what follows. Lumber camps cut the trees in their area, and once those are gone, production stops unless the trees are replanted. Adding a forester keeps the forest growing. Sawmills then turn two wood into one plank, and planks are needed for the bigger homes you'll build later.

Coal is easy to overlook until the first cold snap. Coal makers turn two wood into one coal, and most of it goes to heating homes through winter. When coal runs short, homes turn cold and their residents lose happiness. Build your coal makers early.

Stone, Bricks and Iron Explained

Stone comes from stone camps and stone quarries. Both gather at the same speed, and the size of the deposit decides how much each one can hold, not how fast it works. Stone masonries turn two stone into one stone brick, and bricks are one of the main building materials for town houses later on.

Iron comes from iron quarries, which open once your village reaches Small Town size. Iron goes to the blacksmith, which combines it with coal to make armaments. Each armament takes 4 Iron and 2 Coal. Armaments are what your soldiers need, so this chain matters as soon as you start building up your defenses.

Prismatic Liquid, Storage and Trade

Each stockpile has one space limit shared by everything stored in it, from wood and stone to armaments and prismatic liquid. A large pile of one good takes room from the rest, so put stockpiles close to the buildings that fill them and the homes that use the goods.

Prismatic liquid is the special one. A prismatic liquid extractor turns one Grain and one Grape into two units, and it opens once your village becomes a Small City. Defensive towers draw on it as ammunition, which makes it a key stock for defending your kingdom.

Trade fills the gaps, and it goes through the Embassy. The Embassy unlocks at Big Town and needs four Commoners to open, and it carries 40 Coins in upkeep. Once it's running, you can buy the goods you're short on from neighboring kingdoms.

Which Fabledom Resources Matter Most

Early on, food and coal matter most, because they decide whether your residents stay content and healthy through the first winter. Wood comes right after, since planks and coal both start there. As your village grows, planks, stone bricks and iron become the goods to watch, because bigger buildings and your defenders need them in quantity. Prismatic liquid comes into play later, once you reach a Small City.
