Dream a little bigger...

It has almost arrived! Thanks to an anonymous donor, we were able to pump out a whole new drop of activities that will be making their way into UmbraOnline on Saturday! In the Umbra Variety Pack #1, players will get to experience four micro-stories that we have scattered throughout the city of Umbra. Each of these stories is meant to be experienced in no more than a couple minutes, and will not be as long as Raids or Strikes. Instead, this pack adds to the depth of the fictio

Two of our biggest characters in Umbra are those two that will begin to define the story behind the fountain of youth. These two characters are linked to each other, and neither can be introduced without one another. The first is the University, a group of secretive servants to the city who claim to be searching for answers to the city's mysteries, but there is more to them than should be believed. We won't be spoiling too much about them today, but we will tell you that you'

Take a look at one of our new game modes coming to UmbraOnline before it launches on October 15th! The Temple of Greed is one of our new Temple Trials that will be debuting with UmbraOnline. Some of our returning players will recognize these types of activities from the Elder Trials that appeared in AdytumOnline. This new trial will test players in ways that will almost feel familiar to those who played through the trials in AdytumOnline. #Umbra #Temple #Trial #Greed

It all looks very nice and clean on the outside, but have you ever wondered what's going

Take a look at the new Loyalty Raid coming to the early adopters of our newest NirvanaOnline Game world! The Babel Spire is the tallest strike to ever make its way to NirvanaOnline. This massive new activity will see players climbing floor after floor as they try to make their way to the top of the tower. As a promotional bonus, we have also increased the XP payout of this strike for the first week after launch. You can read more about the Babel Spire in the expanded graphic

The next Minecraft workshop at the Cedar Falls Public Library is almost here! Unlike the Teen Summer Minecraft Program that wrapped up a couple months ago, the Family Minecraft Program will focus on parents AND children. This amazing new program will teach parents and children the ways of Minecraft and NirvanaOnline. Newcomers to the gaming world will learn how to play Minecraft and how the game works. Players with previous knowledge will get to enhance their skills with some

The Ruins of Governa is one of our favorite strikes that will be launching with UmbraOnline. In this medium-difficulty strike, players will get to navigate an ancient temple outside the main city and delve deep into the ruins in search of treasures and wonder. This activity features one of our new puzzles that has been created specifically for UmbraOnline. In this puzzle, players will have to decipher a hidden path through a tile maze by looking to the room around them for cl
