Terms
The agreement, in plain language.
Sonderra is in alpha. These terms are short because the honest version of them is short — there is no shop yet, nothing to buy, and nothing you have to sign away to play.
What you are getting
A game you can play for free, on a world that keeps running whether or not you are logged in. It is in alpha: things change, occasionally break, and every number in it is subject to being rebalanced by people who would rather fix the pacing than protect the old math.
We will never take a paid feature away from you once you have bought it. If something has to change shape for a good reason, we will say so in the changelog rather than quietly editing it out of your account.
Your account
One person, one account. You need an email address and a password, and right now that address has to be on the list — access is granted by hand during the alpha. Do not share your login, and do not make accounts for other people.
You own what you write: your bio, your messages, the names you give things. You give us permission to store and display it inside the game so that other players can read it, which is what a social world is.
What gets you removed
Harassment, hate, impersonating somebody, and anything that breaks the law. We can suspend an account for that, and if it happens we will tell you why. Being boring is not a violation.
What we are not promising
Uptime. This runs on free infrastructure while it is small, and it will have bad afternoons. We keep backups, but nothing here is archival: do not treat a game as the only copy of anything that matters to you.
Money
Nothing costs anything today. When there is something to buy, it will be cosmetic or convenience, it will never make you stronger than somebody who did not pay, and it will be described in the same plain language as the rest of this page.
Anything here can be asked about directly at hello@sonderra.online. The game lives at play.sonderra.online and this site at sonderra.online.
