Living skill scenes
Watch your character mine, smith, and more in hand-crafted animated scenes — idle progression you actually want to look at.
An idle MMO that plays while you live your life.
Build a guild. Master every skill. Even while you're away.
A browser-based idle MMO RPG inspired by Melvor Idle and Idle Clans — mine, smith, fight, and trade in a living world. Built in the open by one developer. Now in closed alpha.

Closed AlphaSee it in motion
A living world you can watch unfold — scenes composed from the game's own art.
A real player economy & guilds
Trade on a live player market and grow a guild alongside other players. A true MMO, not a lonely single-player idler.
Server-authoritative & fair
Every action is validated on the server. No pay-to-win, no cheating — a level playing field for everyone.

Questions, answered
Is Idle Guilds free?
Yes. Closed-alpha accounts are completely free, and there's no pay-to-win — the server validates every action, so everyone plays on a level field.
Do I need to download anything?
No. Idle Guilds runs in any modern web browser — just open it and play. Steam and mobile versions are planned for later.
What is an idle MMO?
An idle (or 'incremental') game keeps progressing while you're away: you queue up skilling, combat, and crafting, then check back as your character grows. The MMO part means a shared, living world with a real player-driven market and guilds.
Will my progress be wiped?
It's an early closed alpha, so occasional resets are possible as systems change. If a wipe is coming, we'll always warn the community on Discord first.
How do I join the Closed Alpha?
Join the waitlist on this page and confirm your email. If you are selected, we will send a separate invitation with access instructions. Waitlist confirmation does not guarantee access or an invitation date.
Does joining Discord grant Closed Alpha access?
No. The public Discord community is optional and does not grant access, change your waitlist status, or improve your selection chances.
Can I play on mobile?
It works in mobile browsers, but it's best on desktop today. Installable apps are on the roadmap.
Where should I report bugs, feedback, or sensitive issues?
Use the public Discord forums for non-sensitive bugs and gameplay feedback. Send account issues, abuse reports, security concerns, and moderation appeals privately to [email protected].
Your guild is waiting.
