The game in short

What is Embercraft?

Embercraft is a free multiplayer medieval strategy game with no download. In your browser, on desktop or mobile, develop your village, manage your resources and raise an army in a world shared with other lords.

In the spirit of the great online management and conquest games, this medieval MMO is built on a persistent real-time universe, a deep combat system and a genuine commitment to fair play: newcomers are protected, and 15 minutes a day is all it takes to make progress.

Build, explore and choose your battles. Map camps, the Dungeon and the Rift offer adventures alongside player conquest. Join a guild, trade at the Trading Post and earn distinctions that tell your story.
