TARVEN

A living dark-fantasy world where every skill is earned and every road is dangerous.

A world that remembers

Tarven is a sandbox MMORPG in the spirit of the classic era: skill-based progression, a player-driven economy, housing, ships and seas, and towns whose laws you live by — or run from.

It is built by a small team and tested in the open. Create an account, verify your email, and sign up for the next playtest.

More about the game

A hilltop keep
The Eastern Reach

Skill-based, classless

Become what you practise. Blend blade, spellcraft, taming, barding, stealth and craft into a character that is yours alone.

Beneath the old roads

A world with consequences

Good and evil towns, guards who remember, thieves who do not forget. Your alignment opens some gates and closes others.

Pinewood trail

Land and sea

Build a house, raise a ship, delve deep dungeons for treasure, and sail the Eastern Reach with your crew.
