How to play
You can play in a desktop browser, at idlewarseas.shard.games, or in the app for Windows 10 and 11. Either way, you create an account in the game itself, with a username, email and password, and the game is in Brazilian Portuguese. It is a pre-alpha: the game is still being built and changes with every update, and news comes out on the Shard Games Discord.
The Windows installer is small: it asks for a folder, downloads the game and creates the shortcuts, and from then on the app updates itself. The first time, Windows may show the warning “Windows protected your PC”, because the installer is not digitally signed yet; to go on, click “More info” and then “Run anyway”.
