Here's a short video addressing the frequently asked question of how servers and worlds will work in Smalland: Survive the Wilds!

There's various moving pieces to this question so we thought, hey, why not make a small video for it and a lil' faq eh?

Will there be dedicated servers?
Not on early access launch. However, it is coming!
Servers will be local.

How many people can I play with?
10! (Well, yourself and 9 others!)

Will there be a peaceful mode?
Not on early access launch, however, it is a planned feature.

Will tree bases be in Early Access?
Yes! You may take your items and tree base with you to whatever world you desire!

Hello Smallfolk.

This is just a small update regarding PvP in Smalland: Survive the Wilds.

We wanted to put a short update out to manage people's expectations regarding PvP at Early Access launch.

Player vs player features on EA launch will be limited to being able to toggle friendly fire on your world and invading other player's worlds to kill, destroy, or steal from them if they have this toggled on in their servers.

We know this is a disappointment to some of you but we'd rather bring PvP in as a big fully-fledged update, rather than misaligning with people's expectations.

We will be announcing an Early Access roadmap before Early Access begins on March the 29th, so stay tuned for that!

Smallfolk, the time has come.

Merge Games is excited to announce that Smalland: Survive the Wilds will be entering Early Access on the 29th of March, 2023!

Set in a world not too unlike our own, but from a perspective much, much smaller... The challenges you face may seem trivial when you're many feet tall... but you'll learn that the danger is relative to your size. You'll need to learn the lay of the land, how to navigate, and how to build your overland home.

As one of the first of your people to come to the lands above, it's up to you to develop your survival skills to tame the world around you and learn its secrets. The survival of your people depends on it.

Watch the trailer now!

Throughout early access, we will be providing content updates, which will be outlined in a roadmap at a later date. There will also be other updates and changes based on our responses to community feedback from Discord, Steam forums, and Twitter. Updates will contain new creatures, areas, weapons, and features so make your not-so-little voice heard!

Early Access content:
📚 Story - Become a vanguard for the Smallfolk, be one of the first to venture into the overworld to save your people, tame the lands, and uncover the mysteries of the worlds above.

🏘 Build - Set up a safe haven in your great tree and take your sanctuary to other servers or build outposts lower to the ground in the over world below. Create a base, find new decorations, and turn an antagonistic, wild world into a place you can call home.

🛠 Craft - Stone, Chitin, Bone, if it's good enough for them, it's good enough for you. Fashion Scythes, hammers, arrows, and more out of your foes and work your way up the food chain one swing at a time.

🏕️ Survive - When there are no mandibles grabbing at you, you'll need to endure the temperature, weather, heights, and environment. A small stream and crack in a rock is a crashing river and gaping chasm when you're only 2 inches tall.

🏹 Fight - There's always something bigger, you'll need to prepare to take on your foes, knowing how they attack, what methods they employ, and how to counter them, whether that means finding out their weaknesses or enhancing your strengths.

A big thank you to those reading this and that have supported Smalland: Survive the WIlds through the years, we couldn't have made it here without you!
