A creature-breeding MMO

Splice

Catch wild creatures, breed new bloodlines, and mine, trade and survive together on a shared island.

Version 0.32.0. Free to play. Windows 10 or later (64-bit), macOS 10.15 or later (Intel or Apple silicon), or Linux.

Life on the island

Everyone shares one world: the rocks you mine empty for everyone, prices are set by other players, and your crops and eggs keep growing while you're away.

Five creatures of different species standing in a meadow
Catch and breed. Every creature is built from five parts it passes on to its young. Trait levels grow over generations, and a rare mutation can start a bloodline nobody has seen.
A homestead with crop plots and a creature pen
Build a homestead. Claim land, grow crops and put a creature to work in the fields.
A player mining starmetal among red trees in the Wildlands
Risk the Wildlands. The best ore lies north, where ferals and other players hunt.
