Pick your door
Same place, same people, two very different games. One is a museum. The other is a journey. Both are gated — content opens in phases, nothing handed out at once. You can change your mind later.
OG Vanilla
The game, kept.
up · Vanilla 1.12 · PvE · level cap 60
Only raid doors are staged — Molten Core opens 2 weeks after 80 × level 60, five more follow over ~15 months, Naxxramas is the last. Then permanent.
Pure Classic Vanilla, a Normal PvE realm — faithful 1.12, tuned where it was broken and nowhere else.
Project Barrens
The journey, together.
up · content stage 1.5 · level cap 50
Published level gates — everyone moves together
One realm that moves forward as one — Classic, then The Burning Crusade, then Wrath of the Lich King, each era opening for everyone at once.
| Side by side | Elwynn | Barrens |
|---|---|---|
| Promise | The game, kept. | The journey, together. |
| What it is | Vanilla 1.12, permanently. | Started early in Classic, moving forward as one realm. |
| Where it goes | Nowhere — that is the point. | Classic, then The Burning Crusade, then Wrath, the whole realm together. |
| How it advances | Raid gates open once enough characters reach the level. Not on a calendar. | Phase gates open on a published date, the same day for everyone. |
One account · both realms
Elwynn is right next door, pure Vanilla with no era ladder and no level brackets — its only staging is the raid doors, and after Naxxramas even those are all open for good, and you can start there whenever you like. Moving a character between the two is not automatic: you can ask for it on the website, and one of us does it by hand. So pick your realm on how you want to play, not on a move you would be waiting for.
Why here
No shop, no purchasable advantage, on either realm. Not now, not later — there is no plan to add one.
Detection logs suspicious activity; a person reads the log and decides. What changed goes into the public changelog, not an announcement made once and forgotten.
No custom content, no rates that change to chase engagement. What ships is a bug fixed or a small account convenience — never a new zone, a season, or a dial the operators can turn.
This stays a place where names are recognised, not a number chased for its own sake.
Already here
Questions, bug reports, and the people already playing — most of it happens here before it happens anywhere else.
The realm, in the open
Every character, every record, every change — public. This is the live Armory and the records the innkeeper keeps by hand.
Start
Pick a door above, then get into it: account, client, character.
One account works in the game and on the site. You can play right away; email confirmation only unlocks Armory and character pages.
Open →A clean Windows zip, realmlist already set to play.stonetavern.app. No installer, no telemetry.
Open →Log in, make a character, and settle into a small PvE realm built around people, not accounts or payment tiers.
Open →If you want to help with the power bill, you can. Donations are support — nothing else. Nobody buys a level, a mount, or a raid spot here.
