The idle RPG Live alpha

Varath

An idle RPG built on a god's death. Mine, craft, fight and master the world of Varath — seventeen skills, a house, a business empire, and somewhere a charter.

What it is

Varath is the one that came first, and it is the canon everything else in this world is generated from. It is an idle game in the Old School RuneScape and Melvor Idle tradition: you pick an action, it runs, and it keeps running while you are doing something else. What you are building is a character who can do everything, slowly, in whatever order you like.

There is no energy bar, no timer asking for money, and nothing in it is for sale. It installs as a web app on a phone and plays fine in a desktop browser.

What is in it

The shape of it.

Twelve gathering and crafting skills

Mining, Smithing, Forestry, Woodcraft, Fishing, Cooking, Farming, Survivalist, Herblore, Bounty, Construction and Crafting — each running its own action in parallel with the others.

Five combat skills

Vitality, Edge, Vigour, Ward and Draw. Weapons have a weakness — slash, stab or crush — and hitting it is worth 20% accuracy and 10% damage.

Two ways to die

Adventure loses you a tenth of your gold. Hardcore wipes the save. You choose once, at creation, and it is not changeable afterwards.

A house and twelve businesses

Construction gives you somewhere to put what you have earned; the businesses turn it back into income. Auto-eat is earned by upgrading the Hospital, not bought.

Expeditions and a collection log

Long-running trips that resolve while you are gone, and a log of everything the world can give you.

The tile game

Varath World

The same world, walked rather than watched — a 2D tile game generated from Varath's own canon. Tap the ground to move, tap anything to act on it.

Open beta

Build, muster, raid

Hearthkeep

Build a hold that never resets, muster champions from the fire, and raid rival holds for what you need. Printed rates, no pity, nothing for sale.

Early build

A homecoming by sea

Nostos

A Bronze Age sea, in pixels. Wash up a stranger, learn the coasts' tongues a word at a time, barter, fight and make your way. On a phone or a keyboard.

Early build

A father and a son, and the rest of the sky

Long Orbit

The last two people: a father and his eight-year-old son, crossing the stars in an ark built for 214 that is now their home. Somber, slow, and yours to walk.
