Economy

The Grand Exchange Is In

Walk up to the booth, put in an offer, and it matches against offers from other players. Collect your coins or items from the clerk when it fills. There is no house on the other side of the trade and no shop that buys everything — if the price moves, it's because players moved it.

What You Can Train

Built by us

The Custom Work

Modern engine

No dusty 317 client. We run OSRS revision 240 on an actively developed engine and pull in upstream fixes regularly.

Seven game modes

Veteran, Adventurer, Skiller and Blitzer, plus three ironman modes. Slower XP gets you better drop rates.

RuneLite support

Play on the client you already use. Plugins work: tile markers, XP trackers, all of it.

54 teleports

Full teleport menu: Cities, Training, Skills, Bosses, Dungeons and Wilderness. Every destination verified walkable, recents saved.

Boss mechanics

God Wars, KBD, Sarachnis, Kalphite Queen and Corporeal Beast with full mechanics: phases, special attacks and summons.

Spellbook altar

Occult altar in the home area. Switch between Standard, Ancients, Lunars and Arceuus without leaving town.

Home: Edgeville

Home area with bank, GE booth, shops, spellbook altar and minimap icons. All placed using measured map data.

Stable hosting

Hardened containers, keys-only access, nightly backups that we actually test by restoring them. Boring, but your progress survives.

Under the hood

How It's Hosted

Short version: we treat the game server like production infrastructure, because losing player progress is not an option.

backups
database dump every night, and we've tested that restoring one actually works
hardening
containers run with dropped capabilities, no privilege escalation and process limits
access
SSH with keys only, firewalled game port, fail2ban
engine
actively developed open-source base, we merge upstream improvements regularly
