Ylands Update 2.0 - Adventure Awaits

Adventurers WANTED!

"Go to the Arid region and claim every bit of clay that your ship can bear, Adventurer!"

"It is said that an abomination inhabits nearby caves. You know what to do, fellow Adventurer."

"Hello Adventurer, the Guild needs your help! Travel across the high seas and map the lands on the very top of this world. Can you do that?"

Join the Classy Adventurers Guild, the doors are open!

The Classy Adventurers Guild is in a dire need of assistance! We have an important mission in the world of Ylands and we need every adventurer we can get to help us out! Anyone who hears the call of adventure, or the sea, or the mountains, or whatever you hear in the back of your head, you are the ONE to help with our crucial tasks.


Which tasks? Oh, you know, mapping distant ylands, slaying vicious beasts, preparing yummy meals, building castles and latrines, riding the waves and animals, discovering new materials and new technologies, looting a bunch (only the bad guys, of course), laughing at your friends' jokes and so on. This list is literally endless, just as all the stuff you can do with the C.A.G. in the world of Ylands. It's fun, so hop aboard!

How can I join C.A.G.?

Short answer: Easily. You are welcome.

Long answer: Download the game (it's free) and dive into its immense world. Or simply launch it, if you already have it downloaded. All available platforms are here: ylands.com/adventureawaits

Even longer answer: There is no "even longer answer" because it really is that easy. So just go ahead, pick your platform and download the game. Or just launch it and update it on your platform if you already have it downloaded.

What is the Classy Adventurers Guild?

We are humble, world class, renowned, and also the only guild in the world of Ylands. Whatever happens here, it is probably our wonderful Adventurers' doing. Classy, yet noncorporate place to spend your time. We are super pet friendly, and we love to flex the fact that our working hours are 100% flexible.

What can you find on the payroll? Uh... good feeling, personal growth, new friends and a lot of new experiences. Sometimes dangerous situations, death in rare cases, but mostly FUN! Did we mention fun? Yea, you get that too, and a lot of it! Also, anything that you find along your journey, like gold, treasure, riches, or bananas.

Already an Adventurer?

Classy Adventurers Guild is proud to have its current members already on board - without you, C.A.G. would not be here today, opening its doors to new members. We have been following your feedback on the operations of and missions into the world of Ylands and we can say that it has been an absolute pleasure and we cannot wait to hear more!

Why delve into the world of Ylands now? What's new?

The world is vast and wonderful. There is something new around every corner. But this update specifically, C.A.G. is happy to announce that Ylands are getting:

  • Lore - the Classy Adventurers Guild and the first campaign-like yland

  • Improved tutorial - smoother onboarding and new player UX

  • Handbook - helps players navigate the game and presents them with Ylands lore

Who is C.A.G. looking for?

Adventurers of all kinds!

Are you curious? Are you human? Do you like to chill? Do you fancy having fun and gathering resources or getting creative with tools building ships and all sorts of structures? Are you keen on exploring new regions?

If you answered YES at least once, then this gig is TAILORED for you! And trust us, we don't hire just anyone...

Oh! And don't forget to bring your friends!


Seriously, we need all the help we can get. Show this posting to your mum, pals, coworkers, boss, dad, grandma, kids, pets and spread the word!

Thank you and stay classy, fellow Adventurer! We can call you an Adventurer already, right? You are on board and joining the Guild guided by my exquisite advert, right?

We hope to meet you on board!
