Why you might like it

  • A sandbox MMORPG currently mid-rebuild under new ownership, with the stated goal of fixing long-standing technical and design problems from its original 2020s run.
  • New owner Happy Cauldron Games has been transparent about development progress via regular livestreams and dev blogs covering combat, networking, and world-building changes.
  • The rebuild migrates to modern backend technology (the Coherence networking layer), addressing infrastructure the previous team had let become outdated and insecure.
  • Existing supporters (Founder pack owners, VIP subscribers) are being carried forward into the relaunch with equivalent value rather than losing their prior purchases outright.
  • The new ownership has explicitly stated no pay-to-win elements will be introduced, aiming to fund the game through cosmetics and an optional subscription instead.
Before you play

Things to consider

  • The game shut down its previous live version on June 15, 2025, for a full rebuild, and as of this listing has not yet confirmed it has fully relaunched — treat any 'available now' claims with caution and check current status directly.
  • This is a genuinely uncertain project by community consensus — commenters have pointed to a pattern of repeated wipes and relaunches (this is at least the second or third major relaunch of the game).
  • All character progression from the previous version does not carry over; anyone returning starts completely fresh.
  • The studio itself acknowledges the scale of the rebuild is significant (new networking, combat, and progression systems), which carries real execution risk for a small team.
  • Some community skepticism exists specifically because of how many times this game has been relaunched, so a cautious wait-and-see approach may be wise before investing time or money.
