Every great adventure needs GOBLINS
Swords 'n' Stuff is a voxel fantasy adventure with 149 bosses, a Kraken, rideable griffins and a frankly irresponsible number of goblins. Live on Kickstarter now.
First, we built a world out of cubes…
Mountains, rivers, caves and castles, rolled fresh from a seed. Nobody else gets your world.
…then stuffed it with things that bite
Now watch it move
A day in the life
What actually happens when you play? Roughly this. Every day.
8:00
Wake up on the homestead
Cows to milk, hens to bother, birdsong. Enjoy it, it won't last.
8:05
Goblins
A whole warband, right on schedule. Grab a sword.
9:30
Borrow a griffin
Nobody said it was yours. Nobody said it wasn't.
10:00
Jump off something tall
Glider out, thermal caught, landing… negotiable.
11:00
Boss o'clock
It shows you exactly where the big hit lands. Roll out, then hit back harder.
13:00
Go sailing
Lovely day for it. The Kraken agrees.
18:00
Party
Every town throws its own festival. Dance round the bonfire till the stars come out.
22:00
One more hand
Hoardbound at the tavern. Just one more game. (It's never one more game.)
Have a go
Four tiny toys made from the real game. Poke them.
Build your hero
Pick a race and a class. All 18 races are real.
Meet Pip, the Human Warrior.
Human
Warrior
Open a pack
Five real Hoardbound cards. Tap the pack, then tap each card to flip it.
Fancy your chances?
Roll a world
Every seed is a different adventure. Here's a taste.
Seed #000000000
You wash up in the Verdant Plains,
where Pyrrhax, the Cinder Warden is in charge,
and there's a Kraken problem.
You are a Mothri Bard. Good luck.
Meet the bosses
Each one has a trick. Learn it, dodge it, and punish the opening.
Fire
Pyrrhax, the Cinder Warden
He gets hotter with every hit until he melts down on his anvil, then cools into brittle slag. That's your moment. Water puts his flames out.
Oh, and there's more
Keep scrolling. Gribble packed the whole bag.
Sky cities
Waterfall islands strung together by vine-lifts. Mind the gap. The gap is a mile.
Guilds at war
Found a guild, meet in your hall, then Guild Clash, Banner Raid or Big Battle. Coming Q1 2027.
The Kraken
It grabs your mast, you chop its arm off, then you go exploring inside it. Bring a torch.
Deep Dungeons
Beat a crypt's master and the floor cracks open. Three floors of traps and puzzles wait below.
Hoardbound
A collectible card game with 579 cards, tucked inside the game. Scroll back up a bit and we'll open a pack.
To horse!
Goblins ride wolves, the dead ride bone steeds. Couch a lance, knock one off, keep the horse.
Royal capitals
Castles, cathedrals, sewers, and a 30-chapter saga about who really deserves that crown.
The main story
Storm the Goblin King's citadel, then face a crown with nobody in it. It even has an ending.
The Goblin War
A goblin factory city versus a goblin forest tribe. Pick a side. Or sell swords to both.
Swords Out
Sixteen heroes, one wild isle, empty pockets. Three minutes to build, then swords out.
Airships
Bolt on cannons, fill the balloon, board the sky pirates. Snacks not included.
Ranching
Lure cows home with their favourite snack. Milk, shear, find the eggs, hire a herder.
Griffins
Saddle up and fly anywhere. Majestic, loyal, only slightly bitey.
Gribble's Wagon
Earn Glory by playing, spend it on capes, costumes and emotes. No real money, ever.
The Sunsea Erg
A desert where the dunes ripple like waves. Something big is swimming underneath.
Heroic Rifts
Beat a rift boss, then go back in on Heroic: ten tiers, nastier twists and a weekly rift.
Mole-folk uprising
Whole cities underground, three greedy Mole Kings and one very well-organised revolution.
Up a tree
Play the Treefolk or the Simari, monkey-folk who build cities in the jungle canopy.
Volcano kingdoms
Dodge the lava, climb inside, and meet the fire-folk who think this is a lovely place to live.
Taming
Lure a wild horse with a carrot, then gentle it or lasso it. Bears want honey.
Sunken kingdoms
Bolt on a brass diving suit and sink to drowned cities. Breathe responsibly.
Grappling hook
Hook a cliff, a mast or a tree, swing, and let go at the top. Landing is your business.
Jousting
Lower your lance, spur your horse and try very hard to stay on it.
Sandbox & photo mode
Spawn anything, anywhere, then press F10 for a free camera and a shot director.
Storybook tales
About 45 fairy-tale quests hidden in the wilds. One of them has a genie.
Wanted posters
Every town board lists outlaws worth a fortune. Dead or alive. Gribble prefers alive and paying.
…and that's just what fit in the bag.

Live onKickstarter
Swords 'n' Stuff is live on Kickstarter until Thursday 10 December 2026. Every copy you pre-purchase comes with the beta, and you play it the day you back.
Campaign status: live. Gribble is counting the pledges.
This bar measures goblin enthusiasm, not money.
Questions, answered
When's it out?
The beta is out now for Kickstarter backers: back a tier with a copy of the game and you play the same day. The full release is planned for Q4 2027.
What can I play it on?
We're building it for Windows and Mac. Anything else will be announced when it's ready.
How much will it cost?
US$19.99 at launch. Kickstarter backers pay less: A$17 (≈ US$12) for the first 500, then A$22 (≈ US$15), and they play the beta the day they back.
What will Kickstarter backers get?
The game, DRM-free, with the beta from the day you back, plus a Kickstarter-only backer cape and Founder's mount skin, your name in the world, or even a mini-boss you co-design, depending on your tier. The full release is planned for Q4 2027.
Can I play with friends?
Yes, from Q1 2027. Multiplayer is already running in our test builds: guilds with their own halls, Guild Clash, Banner Raid, Big Battle and Swords Out. It arrives for everyone in Q1 2027, and the beta is single-player today.
Are there microtransactions?
No. You buy the game, you own the game. Gribble's Wagon sells capes and emotes for Glory, which you earn by playing, never for real money.
Wasn't this called Swords & Goblins?
Yep, same game, new name. There turned out to be a lot more in it than swords and goblins.
Isn't this just a block game?
It's built from cubes, but it plays like a fantasy adventure: 18 races, 19 classes, bosses with real tricks to learn, long story sagas, busy towns, a card game, and an irresponsible number of goblins.
