A block world in Ethereum’s colors, built with friends.

Ether Mines is a free voxel sandbox you play right in your browser, on a computer or a phone. Mine, craft and build in a soft clay world inspired by the illustrations of ethereum.org. Every block remembers who placed it: the world keeps a ledger of everything you build.

What you do

  • Mine and craft your way from a wooden pickaxe to a pure ether pickaxe that breaks the genesis rock at the bottom of the world.
  • Follow the story in chapters, guided by Thea, guardian of the Atrium.
  • Relight dark validators hidden in ruins: they become yours and earn Gwei, the game’s currency, even while you’re offline. Just don’t forget to attest!
  • Fight corrupted nodes, tower wardens and bosses like the Front-Runner in the Mempool colosseum. Guard and parry with ether blades, or use the plasma pistol.
  • Claim plots to protect your builds, invite friends to build with you, and trade items.
  • Ride hovercrafts, twice as fast and over water too.
  • Dress up with dozens of outfits, hats, wings, capes, companions and trails from the shop, all earned in game.

Good to know

  • Free, no ads, no purchases. You can’t buy anything with real money.
  • No crypto, no wallet, no blockchain. Ethereum is the theme, not a requirement. Gwei and items only exist in the game.
  • No email needed: just pick a nickname and a password, and find your game on any device.
  • Multiplayer is on by default: everyone shares the same world.
