The year is 1840. The old world has nothing left for you.

Here, on shores untouched by kings and emperors, you will carve your name into the wilderness itself. Fell the ancient pines. Raise walls from raw stone. Trade with ships that sail from lands you'll never see.

But beware - you are not alone. Bandits lurk in the hills. Bears prowl the forests. And across the great divide, another faction watches for the breath of your chimneys.

This land will not be given. It must be taken.

About the Game

Guns Horses & Ships is a free multiplayer browser game set on the 1840s frontier. No download required - jump straight into a persistent open world where every structure, trade route, and territory is built by players.

Harvest timber and stone, craft tools and weapons, cook food to survive, and build settlements from the ground up. Ride horses across the wilderness, sail ships along the coast, and trade goods at bustling player-run markets.

Choose a faction - Southguard or Northmen - and fight for control of the frontier. Recruit militia to defend your base, man artillery cannons, and wage PvP battles for territory. Whether you prefer base building, crafting, trading by sea, or multiplayer survival combat, there is a role for you in this world.
