Pixel Wars is a worldwide, real-time battle for a single shared canvas 2000×2000 squares, four million pixels, every one of them placed by a real player. Claim territory. Build art. Defend what's yours. Or blow it all up. THE CANVAS One shared world, live for everyone at once. Zoom in to place a single pixel with precision, or zoom out and watch continents of color rise and fall in real time. Everything you see was placed by someone and everything can be painted over. SEASONS Each season lasts 3 months. When it ends, the canvas wipes clean and the war starts over. Your rank, lifetime pixels, and achievements never reset, only the battlefield does. Make your mark before the clock runs out. TEAMS Go solo, or join a team of up to 10. Coordinate in team chat, plan territory pushes, defend your allies' art, and climb the team leaderboards together. BOMBS & NUKES Bombs clear a 3×3 area. Nukes wipe out 5×5. Win them from the daily spin wheel or earn them through rewards, then carve out space or erase your rivals' work. THE SAFE ZONE The center of the canvas is protected ground where bombs and nukes have no effect. If you're an artist, not a fighter, build here, your work can never be blown away. EARN AS YOU PLAY • A free pixel every 15 minutes • Daily spin wheel with bits, pixels, bombs, and more • Login-streak rewards that grow day by day • Every 5 pixels you place earns 1 bit. Spend bits on pixel refills and bombs RANKS & ACHIEVEMENTS Climb 10 ranks, from EMBER all the way to SOVEREIGN. Unlock achievement badges, customize your profile with frames and showcases, and show the world your war record. COMMUNITY Team chat, direct messages, and player profiles with report and block tools on every player, filtered content, and a moderation team that acts on reports within 24 hours. Free to play. One canvas. No second chances until next season. The war is live. Where will you leave your mark?
