Frequently asked questions
Can not find your question here? Get in touch through the contact page.
Is Duskora free?
Yes. Duskora is free to play in your browser. There is an optional shop, but you never need to buy anything to play or to progress.
Do I need to install anything?
No. Duskora runs in a modern browser such as Chrome, Firefox, Edge or Safari — on a computer with a mouse, or on a tablet or phone by touch (turned on its side works best).
What happens to my colony when I am offline?
Your colony keeps its state. When you come back, a short summary tells you what your crew did while you were away.
Can other players attack me?
Not at first. New colonies are protected until they reach level 5 or have played for a week, whichever comes first. If you attack another player yourself, your protection ends.
How many crew members do I get?
You start with two: one on their feet and one hurt friend to rescue. A third joins at level 5. More can be won over from tribes, strangers and prisoners.
What are tribes?
Peaceful tribes — river folk and stone kin — trade with you and remember how you treat them. Raider camps are hostile and send war parties to nearby colonies.
What is standing?
Your standing with a tribe rises when you trade with it or help it and falls when you attack it or ignore its requests. High standing brings gifts and better offers; low standing makes a tribe hostile.
How do clans work?
Players in the same clan share a chat channel and may settle in the sector right next to each other. Players in different clans must keep at least one empty sector between them.
Can I move my colony?
Yes, once a week. Your crew travel to the new site as a caravan and your buildings are set up there when they arrive.
What is the highest level?
Level 80. It is meant to take about a year of regular play; new buildings and recipes unlock along the way.
Which languages are available?
The game and this website are available in English, Dutch and German. In the game you switch language in the settings.
Night is falling. Is your camp ready?
Signing up takes a minute. Then you are standing next to your crashed ship, with one crew member, a saw and a hammer.
