Morterra

Wake up with nothing. Take what's theirs.

Fight your way up from a stone hatchet to tungsten alloy. Build walls, because other players can find you while you sleep, and raid theirs while they're offline. The map wipes on the 1st, so the clock is already running.

Start with nothing

A player chasing a chicken through a dark forest

Your first night

You wake up with empty hands. Pick flint and rocks out of the rubble, make a stone hatchet and get some logs before dark.

A stone base on a hill with a moat dug around it

A base worth guarding

Start in wood and upgrade every wall to stone, then iron, steel, titanium alloy and tungsten alloy as you find the metal. Dig a moat if you want one.

Other people's bases

Mine sulfur, turn it into gunpowder at the alchemy table and make bombs. Whatever is behind their walls is yours if you get through.

15 skills that outlast the wipe

Levels belong to your account. When the map resets on the 1st, your base goes and your Mining level stays.

Everything you make has a quality

Higher levels and better tools roll better ore, logs and gear, and a Legendary sword hits harder than a Common one.

Wear the crown

Craft one and put it on. A crown marks the monarch on everyone's map, and the longest reign of the season goes on the highscores.

  • Horses to tame and saddle
  • Rafts, canoes and cargo boats
  • 16 kinds of fish
  • Guilds of up to 20

A new island every month

The map wipes on the 1st. For the last 30 minutes, dynamite turns up all over the island, and the season's highscores are saved for good.

How seasons work

We've been making this since 2011

It started as a Java game. It moved to the browser in 2017, went 3D in 2019 and was rebuilt from scratch as Morterra 2 this fall.
