Welcome to Openverse
Openverse is an open, persistent voxel world you play in your browser — no download. Connect a Solana wallet and you’re in: mine and build, farm and cook, fish, fight the Muck, take on quests, run minigames, and shape one shared world alongside everyone else.
This is the player handbook. It explains every system in the game, in plain language, with the real numbers under the hood.

The core loop
Openverse is built from a handful of verbs that combine into endless play:
| Verb | What it means |
|---|---|
| Mine | Break voxels with your hands or the right tool. Harder blocks need better tools. |
| Build | Place blocks back, snap together structures, save them as reusable blueprints. |
| Craft | Turn raw drops into tools, gear, and stations at a workbench. |
| Cook | Throw ingredients in a kitchen pot and discover (or improvise) food. |
| Farm | Till, plant, water, harvest — and crossbreed crops for rarer strains. |
| Fish | Cast, hook, and reel in a catch-bar minigame for fish and treasure. |
| Fight | Survive the Muck and its creatures; respawn and try again. |
| Quest | Follow quest-giver NPCs through challenges for rewards. |
| Claim | Drop a robot to protect your land so no one can grief your build. |
| Play together | One shared world: trade, gift, follow, photograph, and compete on leaderboards. |
What makes Openverse different
- It runs in the browser. No client to install, no launcher. Open a tab and play.
- Your wallet is your character. Connect a Solana wallet — that’s your login and your identity. No email, no password.
- One persistent world. Everything you build stays. The world keeps living — water flows, plants grow, the Muck spreads — whether you’re online or not.
- Open source. Openverse is a community fork of the open-source Biomes engine.
