Getting started

Mytharus is a browser MMO in a quiet valley — farm, fish, mine, fight and trade with other players in one persistent world. Everything you own lives on the server, tied to your wallet.

  • Log in with any EVM wallet (MetaMask, Coinbase Wallet, Rabby…) — you sign one message, no transaction, no gas. The game runs on the Base network for identity only.
  • On mobile, open the site inside your wallet app's browser.
  • First join asks you to pick a display name — that's what other players see.
  • Talk to the teachers in town — each gifts you their tool (hoe, axe, pickaxe, rod…) and shows you their skill.

The world

The valley is a cross of connected regions — walk to a map edge to cross into the next one.

  • Town — the safe centre: shops, bank, temple, teachers and the fountain square.
  • Farmlands & forests — till, plant, chop and gather.
  • The Mines — enter the cave mouth for coal, iron and gold; watch for what lurks below.
  • The Wilderness — the north. PvP is enabled here: other players can attack you, and dying drops your carried loot.
  • The Volcano — a combat arena through the rift: demons, giants and dragonfire (bring an Antifire potion).
  • The Deep Wild / Deep Dunes — descend past the far edges for layered, harder maps with the best drops.

Buildings with a door can be entered — homes, shops, the bank and the temple all have interiors.

Skills

Every action trains a skill — levels unlock better crops, tools and prayers. Open the skills panel with K.

Farming

Till grass with the hoe, plant a seed, water it with the can, and come back when it's grown. Each crop needs a Farming level to plant — buy any seed at the Market, but you can only put it in the ground once you're levelled. XP scales with the seed tier.

Crops grow in real time on the server (each growth stage ≈ 5 real minutes) — they keep growing while you're offline.

Fishing

Equip the rod and cast at open water. Wait for the ! and reel in. Cook your catch at a campfire (flint + wood) to make food that heals in combat.

Combat

  • Tap or walk into a mob to fight. Your Combat level shows over your head, RS-style.
  • Weapons and armour (bronze → iron → steel) come from the Armoury — helmet, body and legs each add protection.
  • Giants — rare gold-rimmed variants of any mob: 2.5× health, harder hits, but 3× XP and double drop rolls.
  • Blood Moon — a server-wide surge: the sky turns crimson, spawns get meaner, XP and drops spike, and Giants roll far more often.
  • Potions from the Potions Master: Health, Speed, Strength, Regen, and craftable Antifire (for the Volcano).
  • Food heals — cook fish and meat; eat from the hotbar mid-fight.

Prayer

  • Bury bones from your backpack for Prayer XP (+15 each).
  • Open the prayer menu with P — toggle prayers that boost combat (accuracy, defence, restore rate…). Active prayers drain prayer points.
  • Recharge at the Temple — kneel at the altar (or talk to the Priest) to restore your points. There's an outdoor altar beside the temple too.
  • Your Prayer level = your maximum points.

Economy & trading

  • Market (general store) — buy seeds, sell produce, fish and gathered materials at fixed prices.
  • Armoury — weapons, armour and pickaxes. Potions Master — potions.
  • Grand Exchange — player-to-player order matching (see below).
  • Coins are one currency used everywhere; carried coins can be lost on death in the Wilderness — bank them.

Grand Exchange

The GE is a live order book: place Buy or Sell offers at your price and the server matches them with other players — even while they're offline.

  • Browse by category, tap an item, pick Buy or Sell, set quantity and price (the guide price and live best offers help you price).
  • Matched trades land in your collection box — collect coins/items from the Orders tab.
  • Up to 20 open offers; cancel any time and escrow returns to you.

Bank

  • The vault holds 64 stacks — drag or tap items between backpack and vault. Saved server-side.
  • Banked coins are safe on death. Deposit before you head north.
  • Talk to the Banker or stand at the counter to open it.

Bestiary

Press G to open the bestiary — every creature you've slain, with kill counts and milestones that pay coins and Combat XP automatically (10 / 50 / 250 kills; bosses 3 / 10 / 25). Master them all.

Death & risk

  • Dying drops your gear and tools into a tombstone where you fell — get back and loot it to recover everything.
  • Banked items and banked coins are always safe.
  • Logging out within 10 seconds of taking damage counts as a death (anti combat-logging) — don't pull the plug mid-fight.
  • Dying underground returns you to the surface.
