Terms of Use

The game is ours; playing it is yours

Clayhearth - its code, art, animation, sound, music, writing and design - is copyright © 2026 The Clayhearth developers, all rights reserved. You may play it, free, here at its official site, for your own enjoyment.

What you may not do

• Copy, download, extract or save the game's files, art or sounds in order to use them anywhere else.
• Re-host, republish, sell or distribute the game or any part of it, including on any store or game platform.
• Make or publish a game, mod or product built from its files, or present any of it as your own.
• Reverse engineer the client or the server, or interfere with the server, other players or their colonies (cheating, automated clients, attacks, or exploiting bugs on purpose).

Screenshots, videos and streams of you playing are welcome.

This is an early alpha

• Things will break. Colonies may be lost, rolled back or reset, especially as the game changes.
• Your colony is tied to this browser. Keep the recovery code from the colony menu: it is the only way to get the colony back on another browser or machine, and anyone who has it can play your colony.
• The game is provided as it is, with no warranty, and may change, pause or end at any time.

Playing with others

Colony names are seen by other players. Keep them decent. We may rename, remove or block a colony or a player that breaks these terms or spoils the game for others.

What we keep

To run the game the server keeps your colony, its name and public player ID, and the network address you connect from. When the game hits an error in your browser it sends us a short report (the error, the page and your browser's name) so we can fix it. We do not sell any of it.

Contact

Questions, a colony suspended by mistake, a player to report, or a request to see or delete what we keep about you: write to us on X, @peaceakatoo. Include your player ID (from the colony menu, like 7Q4-M2X) - never your recovery code.
