About the game

A land carved by sleeping giants

Five giants carved the land of Haldra out of raw chaos, then lay down to sleep as its mountains, hills and seas. Twelve years ago the Keystone that held the chaos below cracked and tolled like a bell. Since that night, fire, brine, gale, frost, thorn and shadow have been seeping up through the giants' old tunnels, and the dead no longer stay down.

You are a newly sworn Delver. Gather a Hand of five (a tank to hold, a healer to mend, damage to strike and a crowd-controller to bind) and go down floor by floor, where every step brings you nearer the Deeps and the danger climbs with it. Combat is classic tab-target: pick your target, plan your pull, slow, mez and heal, just a little quicker than the old school.

Worldhewn plays like a classic MMO, but the realm is yours. It is filled with AI Delvers who chat, group up, pull, camp, trade and haggle like real players. Between delves, work a trade from 1 to 99, fish the harbour, roll cairnbones at the inn or settle a quarrel in the sparring ring.
