To open the Village, you need to complete one workshop order for constructing a house. After that, the Village button will appear on the bottom left of your main screen. 

 

There are 2 villages in the game : Lumber and Seaport Village. You can travel around your villages by tapping red marker icon. 

 

 

When you build 9 houses in Lumber Village and collect coins,  you will be able to unlock Seaport Village. Please note that  Seaport blueprints will be available in the shop, when you unlock the Seaport village.
