Why Grimveld

A classic 8.0 world with Open PvP and no scheduled resets. Learn how we build and run Grimveld.

The full 8.0 map is in the game from day one; its premium cities need Premium. We recreate its monsters, NPC shops, boat fares, spells, blessings and death penalties. We correct discrepancies in the server data using archived community wiki pages from 2007 and record the source of each correction.

We use newer graphics and stackable runes instead of charged runes. Mounts are cosmetic shop items. Kill tasks, daily bosses, item rarity and elite monsters are our additions.

We're preparing hunting tasks, daily bosses and a launch race, and item rarity and elite monsters are already in the game. Item upgrades will come later, after we've assessed the world economy. The market, imbuements, prey and forge remain disabled.

Bots and programs that play for you are banned. The client has no bot panel or script terminal. A member of the game staff reviews each suspected case and decides on any penalty. We do not issue automatic bans.

Penalties count per account: 7 days for a first offence, 30 days for a second and a permanent ban for a third.

We sell cosmetics, convenience items, Premium and account services at fixed prices. The shop never sells experience, combat stats or the best gear. Premium opens the premium cities and adds house ownership and convenience perks. Promotion and all spells are available without it.

We have no planned resets or end date. Every hour, we save the world and send an encrypted backup off the game server. Daily backups cannot be deleted for 14 days. We test restores on a clean machine, monitor failures and test changes before releasing them.

Grimveld is run by Filip from Poznań, through his company Externet Filip Brankiewicz, which is also the seller in the shop. Send ideas, bug reports and questions to our Discord or to support@grimveld.com.
