Gather
Chop, mine, fish and forage across biomes that each hold something the others don't. Skills level the way you'd expect — slowly, visibly, satisfyingly.
Free browser MMO
Gather, craft, glow
A wide low-poly world where you chop, mine, fish, build and trade your way up — then risk it all out in the open. Everyone starts as a spark.

What you'll do
A living world that rewards the long game
Every item in Sootborn is made by a player. Every resource is pulled out of the ground by someone. The economy is yours to run.
Craft
Turn raw material into gear worth fighting over. Specialise, build a reputation, and let other players come to you for the things only you can make.
Fight
Step into contested ground when you're ready. What you carry is what you stand to lose — and what you stand to take.
Skills
Level everything, at your own pace
No classes. You are what you've trained. TODO — edit this list to match the skills actually in your build.

Carry it out, or lose it out there
Safe ground to learn in, dangerous ground worth the trip. The further out you go, the better the material — and the more real the risk.
TODO — confirm these zone rules match your design before launch.
-
Home ground
No PvP. Banks, workshops and the market. Learn your trade in peace.
-
The commons
Flagged PvP only. Better nodes, and other players who may want them.
-
The cinders
Full loot. The richest material in the world, and no rules protecting it.

FAQ
Questions people ask
No. Sootborn runs in the browser you already have. Open the page and you're in.
TODO — state your real minimum spec here. The art is deliberately low-poly so the game runs on modest laptops and older machines.
Only in the contested zones, and only what you were carrying. Home ground is safe, and anything banked stays yours.
TODO — write your monetisation answer here. Be specific; this is the question that decides whether people trust a new MMO.
