Ironwood RPG
A modern idle MMO in the skilling tradition: you queue woodcutting, fishing, smithing or a fight, and the action carries on without you for up to a day.

How it plays
How Ironwood RPG plays
Ironwood RPG plays like the skilling half of an old-school MMO. You choose an action, such as chopping wood, fishing or fighting a particular monster, and your character repeats it, filling the inventory and earning experience while the tab is closed.
Around that loop sit crafting chains, pets, a map of challenges and a player market. Guilds build halls together and enter a weekly Guild Trial. A Single-player Mode creates a separate character who cannot use the market or join a guild and has a leaderboard of its own.
Your first half hour
- 0–5 minOpen ironwoodrpg.com and continue as a guest to try it without an account, or sign in with Google or email to keep progress across devices.
- 5–15 minStart a gathering skill and watch the bag fill; most crafting later needs those materials.
- 15–30 minQueue a longer action, then look at the market and the guild screen to see what the other players are trading.
Accounts and ages
A guest save lives only in that browser, so clearing site data loses it. Since version 1.0 each person may have one account.
The terms say the site is for users aged 13 and over, and that anyone under 18 needs a parent or guardian's permission and supervision. Pearl purchases can be refunded within 24 hours if none of them has been spent.
