Each day a Legendary stares out of the dark. Name it from the eyes alone. Fewer tries, more bounty.
Practice round: whose eyes are these?
Three tries. No bounty yet, just practice.

Sign the Articles. Get on the list.
Every pirate crew sailed under a written code. Put your mark on ours, take a pirate name, and your Wanted poster goes up on the rope. It is step three of the whitelist quest on Home.
The Articles of the Swabby
- Every hand signs in their own ink. One pirate, one name, one poster.
- Bounty is earned at sea and never bought.
- The crew never messages first. Anyone who does is a scammer, not a pirate.
The Articles open soon
The quills come out any day now. Follow us on X and you will know the moment the rope goes up.

That X account is a little too young to sign. Give it some time at sea and come back.
Connect X first. It keeps one poster per pirate and keeps the bots off the rope.
Your pirate name
3 new names left, then it's yours for good.

Whitelist wallet
Bounty quests open soon. Keep an eye on @swabbyxyz.
The quest board
Bounty quests go up after the Articles open. Bounty only comes from playing, never from buying.
Message in a Bottle
A bottle washes up in your cove in the beta each day. Seven scraps spell the hidden fourth Article.
Find the Stowaway
One pirate hides in a crowd of 300 Swabbies. Spot them before the tide turns.
Christen Your Ship
Name your ship in the beta. The name goes on the stern and on your share card.
Press-gang a Crew
Bring hands who sign the Articles and really play. Their names go on your poster as your crew.
Your crew works while you sleep.
An idle game about building a pirate cove. Plan the island, take the supply drops, keep the rum flowing, and come back to a bigger cove.

Build up the island
A flag on a sandbar becomes a camp, the camp a tavern, the tavern a fort with a lighthouse.

Start with a rowboat
Two pirates, a campfire and a free supply drop every hour.
Close the tab. The cove keeps building.
Your crew works while you're away, as long as the rum lasts.

Before you sign
Do I need a wallet to play?
No. The beta runs in your browser with no wallet and no sign-up.
Why sign in with X?
One pirate, one poster. Signing in with X keeps the rope free of bots and lets you post your Wanted poster in one tap.
Why do you need my wallet address?
Your whitelist place is tied to it for the mint. You paste the address and that's all. There is no wallet connection, no signature and no transaction.
Can I buy bounty?
No. Bounty will only come from quests: the daily eyes, bottles in the beta, the stowaway crowds, your ship's name and crewmates who really play.
What happens to my beta progress?
It stays in your browser for the whole beta. Season 1 starts every player from the same line.
When is the mint?
Not set yet. It will be announced on X first, then here.
Stay safe at sea
- The only website is swabby.xyz.
- We never message first and never ask for a seed phrase.
- The whitelist never asks you to connect a wallet or approve anything.
- Any mint link not posted here and on @swabbyxyz is fake.
The tide is in.
Play the beta today and sign the Articles while the rope still has room.
