What are Dreams in Furcadia?
Dreams are player-created areas that let users design their own settings, art, stories, and social spaces. They are central to Furcadia's world-building focus, rather than being simple background maps.
Who developed Furcadia, and what came before it?
Furcadia was developed by the independent company Dragon's Eye Productions. The same creators previously ran an online game called DragonSpires, which helped establish the project's social virtual-world roots.
Is Furcadia mainly about combat and leveling?
Not usually; its main activities are socializing, free-form role-playing, avatar customization, and exploring player-made Dreams. Historical descriptions specifically distinguish Furcadia from many MMORPGs because player combat was not its central system.
