Pawnborn
Get an invite
Pawnborn's first world will be small, closed, and invite-only. This is how you hear about it.
Join the notify list
Give us an email address and we will use it exactly twice: once when the invite-only pre-alpha opens, and once when the beta does.
What you are signing up for
Two emails, then silence
One when the pre-alpha opens, one when the beta does. No weekly newsletter, no drip sequence, no "we miss you". Unsubscribe in one click and we will never write again.
No date, and no fake one
We do not have a release date. We are not going to pick one so this page looks busier. When there is a date you will get it in an email rather than reading it here.
Nothing to buy
There is no founder's pack, no early-access purchase, no way to pay to get in sooner. The list is the list.
Why invite-only at first
A world of sixteen-player republics at war needs a real number of real people to behave the way it is meant to. We would rather open it in stages that work than all at once badly.
What the pre-alpha will be
Rough, honest and incomplete. Expect the shape of a kingdom, real chess battles with real stakes, and a great many things that are designed but not yet built. Expect to be asked what is boring. The whole reason a small world exists first is that we want to be told.
