Invites

Watchfire grows by word of mouth. Established keepers can invite new players, and both sides benefit when a newcomer sticks around.

How invites work

• Invite codes unlock as your village grows. Your first invite arrives at 35 villagers, a second at 100, and a third at 200 — up to three in all.
• Each code is single-use: whoever redeems it first claims it, so share yours with the person you mean to invite.
• New players redeem a code when they found their village.
• Codes belong to the chain they were created on: an invite from a Ronin village founds a Ronin village, and a Base invite founds a Base one.

Codes do not expire on their own.

What a code looks like

A code now carries a letter that names its network — R-XXX-XXX-XXX for Ronin, B-XXX-XXX-XXX for Base — so you can tell at a glance where an invite belongs.

• Just paste it. Paste a whole code, an invite link, or a code with or without its letter, in any capitalization — the entry field sorts it out and fills itself in.
• On the wrong network? If you enter a Base code while on Ronin (or the reverse), the game tells you which network it belongs to and offers a one-tap switch.
• Older codes still work. Invites made before the letters were added redeem exactly as they always have.

What you earn

When someone you invited grows their village far enough to take root, you, the inviter, receive a reward:

• A hut's worth of wood, scaled to your village.
• Some food alongside it.

That payout lands in your village, on-chain.

Gift invites

Some invitations arrive with a gift of $FIRE already waiting for you. When you found your village with one of these, the $FIRE lands in your wallet as part of the same step — yours to spend on stoking, building, and growing. If an invite carries a gift, the game tells you before you commit.

Gift invites are created by the team for special occasions, so not every code carries one.

Fair play

Invite rewards are real resources, so the game watches for abuse. The reward is earned only when the player you invited actually gets their village going, not just for signing up.
