What Wildhearth is

Wildhearth is an online game on a northern island of lakes, forests and snowy peaks. You wake up there as a stranger, and other players share the world with you.

Seven towns hold over 80 quests. Ten world bosses wait in their lairs, and events break out near you. Nineteen skills grow as you use them. The island has 18 regions to explore, from the home fields to the rime peaks.

Your wife travels with you and fights at your side. Build a home, join a guild, trade at the market or camp on the road.

What you do there

All of this is free to play.

Quests and bosses

The man and his anthro wife stand in a town square. She says the goblin chief Grisk Redcap is gone.

Quests

Over 80 town quests bring named foes and old lore, and some let you pick the ending. Notice boards post new work and bounties every hour.

World bosses

Hati the Moon-Hound is one of ten world bosses, from level 5 to 50. Everyone who helps gets his own roll at the loot.

World events

Events happen near you: war bands, drakes on the roads, rifts at night and festival days. Anyone close by can join and share the reward.

Combat and gear

The man and his wife face a hill giant who raises a huge hammer on a grassy slope.

Action combat

Fight up close or at range, and block or roll when a foe winds up. Every blow has a damage type, and each armour is weak to some.

The man fires a handcannon over a fence, and a cloud of smoke drifts across the field.

Crossbows and guns

Crossbows hit harder than bows. Guns load slowly and hit hard, with a flash and a cloud of smoke.

Gear and enhancing

Weapons and armour come in five tiers, plus 27 unique weapons and 13 unique sets. Add up to five strengths to a piece at the anvil or workbench.

Skills

Nineteen skills rise from 1 to 50 as you use them, and every tenth level changes how a skill plays. There are no points to spend.

Melee, Ranged, Magic, Light Armour, Medium Armour, Heavy Armour, Woodcutting, Mining, Fishing, Cooking, Firemaking, Farming, Hunter, Smithing, Crafting, Fletching, Runecarving, Construction and Riding.

The man casts a line into a clear lake from a sandy shore, with his anthro wife beside him.

Fishing

Cast your line and answer the bite in time. Char like cold lakes, and burbot bite at night.

The man stands in a sunny pine wood, with a lynx and another wild animal close by.

Hunting

Every region has wild animals of its own, from hares to musk oxen. Skin what you hunt for meat and pelts.

Foraging and cooking

Pick wild berries and mushrooms, and harvest the town fields. Cook over forty dishes, and most give a buff.

Exploring

The world map, with Hearthvik and the names of the regions around it.

Eighteen regions

The island holds 18 regions, each with a tier from I to V. Foes get tougher the further you go from home.

Together

Questions

Is Wildhearth free?

Yes. You can play the whole game for free. The subscription adds comforts and looks. It adds no power.

What happens if I cancel?

Your perks last until the end of the month you paid for. After that nothing is deleted. Items past 200 bank slots stay, and you can take them out. Your guild capes show as plain cloaks, and your gaits and your wife's go back to the default.

You pick one character to keep playing. You can change that pick once a week. Your other characters wait, locked, until you support again.

Can I get a refund?

Refunds follow the site's Terms. If the game was down for a large part of a month you paid for, ask on the Fenris Labs Discord and we'll refund that month.

How does it tie to my account?

It belongs to your Fenris Companions account, the Discord account you sign in to the app with. The game checks it each time you sign in, so a new subscription or a cancel shows at your next sign-in.

How do I cancel or change my card?

Go to your supporter page. You can cancel there. Stripe's own page handles your card and invoices.

Supporter terms
