What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“Our adventure at IdleBound is just beginning, and we'd rather build the rest of it with the community. We have 18 working skills, five regions, a handful of bosses, quests, diaries, and a ton more An idle game also lives or dies on its pacing, and the only way to get that right is with real players. Expect a slightly rough EA as balance changes, and bug fixes are expected. Your feedback will shape IdleBound.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We're aiming to leave Early Access in the second quarter of 2027. depending on if player feedback shows something needs more time, and we'll post any change to the plans in the game's Discord.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“The full version is planned to add:

Farming: plant seeds that grow in real time
Thieving: pickpocketting, chests, etc
Mastery: A prestige system where you sacrifice your levels for increased loot/experience
More in-depth boss fights
Achievements, daily contracts and skill capes
New skills”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“IdleBound is fully playable

18 skills, each with seven tiers of materials, and skill checks
Melee, ranged and magic combat against 21 monsters, three bosses, with gear from wooden to rune and three boss only armour sets.
Five regions, ten quests, five achievement diaries, and Slayer tasks and titles.
More than 300 items, a collection log and five pets.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“No. IdleBound will cost the same during and after Early Access, and buying it now gets you the full version on launch”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“Through our Discord we intend to work closely with our community on bugs, and issues as well as tweaks to performance and polling new content”

About This Game

IdleBound is an idle RPG for players who love the grind of classic MMOs but not the hours of clicking. Pick a skill, start an action, and your character keeps working, even with the game closed.

Master 18 skills

Mine, fish, chop, forage, forge, craft, cook, brew, fletch and bind runes, then turn what you make into better gear. Every gathering and production skill climbs the same seven tiers: ore from bronze to ember, logs from normal to elder, and fish from shrimp to shark.

Stay sharp: while you watch, skill checks pop up as you gather. Strike the cracks in the rock or hook the fish at just the right moment, and a streak of hits makes you gather up to 40% faster. Miss them, or walk away, and you lose nothing.

Gear up from wooden to legendary

Smith melee armour, stitch ranged sets from hides and weave magic robes from thread and runes. The ladder climbs from wooden to rune and ends in three boss-only sets: Draken, Miasmic and Dellwarden.

Fight with melee, ranged or magic

Every monster has a weakness. Bring the right style and the right food, then take on The Bonecarver, the Dread Revenant and the Abyssal Drake.

Explore five regions

Travel from the fields of Ashvale through Thornwood, Deepstone Mines and Bleakhaven Ruins into The Voidscar. Each has its own monsters, resources, shop and achievement diary.

Quests, diaries and Slayer

Complete 10 quests, five achievement diaries and Slayer tasks for titles and permanent rewards.

Collect everything

More than 300 items, rare drops and five pets to find, all tracked in your collection log.

Progress while you're away

Queue up to five actions and close the game. When you come back, a "While you were away" report shows every level, kill and item you earned. Progress counts for up to 8 hours away, and you can earn a longer limit as you play.

Early Access

IdleBound is still growing. Farming, Thieving, clue scrolls, Mastery, achievements and more are on the way, and your feedback will shape what comes next.
