News from Mistwood

Milestones and announcements from the world's open development. Newest first.

15 Jul 2026Milestone

The gates of Velha Guarda open

Mistwood is playable in your browser: no install, no app store. Walk the town core, hunt in the wilds, and be entered in the iron-bound Roll under a number that is yours for good.

Everything you see is the real authored world rendered from the original 10.98 sprite set. This is the beginning of a long road, built in the open. Join the Discord to shape what comes next.

14 Jul 2026Funding

Supporter Packs fund the alpha runway

Founder packs are the clean funding path for Mistwood: cosmetic and status rewards now, referral codes reserved for beta, and no pay-to-win power.

The goal is simple: turn interest into runway before the project burns another pile of money. Checkout comes with account identity, receipts, refund handling and a ledger.

13 Jul 2026Dungeon

The first loop is loot, fight, extract

Mistwood's alpha focuses on one repeatable expedition: enter the crypt, open chests, fight monsters and players, then extract before the pack is lost.

The Living World remains the place to gather, recover and be remembered. The Dungeon is the dangerous activity at its heart.

10 Jul 2026World

The Roll of Citizens travels by raven

Set foot in a city and its scribes enter you in the Roll, a leather book bound in iron, under a number that is yours for good.

Allied cities copy each other's Rolls and send them on by raven, so a stranger already knows your name before you ever meet. Die for the last time and your number is never reused; the gap is the mark that you were here.
