What are Guides?
You may have seen Guides in-game before and wondered who they were. Guides are volunteers who help keep the game's public chat rooms civil. Elder Games, LLC is a tiny company and our employees can't monitor chat in real-time 24/7, so Guides act as our first line of moderation.

The Life and Death of the "Charged Pig" skill
Have you ever noticed that all the talking pig NPCs in the game mention that they obtained sentience after being struck by lightning? Probably not. But they do! And this is because

Hello everyone! Today, I want to talk about all of the changes that have been made with the newly revised Crafting Caravan event.


More Tasks
Using the game's live event system, we were restricted in the way we could deliver parallel tasks without there being one entity per task given. Looking forward, the casino's theater room would have filled up with NPCs very quickly as
