| How you level | One character level: clearing level n costs 50 × n XP, so level 345 needs 17,250. Levels run into the millions — v12.87 added level-up announcements at 25,000 and 1,000,000+. Most of it comes from a travel button: each press is one step and can pay gold or XP from 1 up to your level, an item or a fight.123 | Skills train on real-world steps: each step feeds an action, and finishing the action pays the XP.13 |
| Skills and caps | Four gathering skills — woodcutting, mining, fishing and treasure hunting — each with its own level and tool, plus crafting, which turns the materials into items. Professions replaced jobs in v12.51 and give a stat bonus that grows with rank; v12.86 raised profession XP by 15%.452 | 12 skills. Each levels to 99, after which experience keeps accruing but the level stops moving.13 |
| Combat | Turn-based and decided by three stats: max hit is Strength minus 9/11 of the target's Defence (floor 20), and hit chance is 3.5 × Dexterity ÷ Defence. A special attack costs 1 energy for +25% Strength that turn. Every Monday 12 world bosses and 1 god boss spawn; helping kill one pays 8, 12 or 16 times your level in XP.67 | Not verified — left blank rather than estimated. |
| Economy and market | A player market that takes a 3.5% fee once an item sells, plus 2.5% if you buy with gold straight from the bank. Keys and Diamond Shards cannot be listed. The About page claims over 8,000 pieces of loot.89 | The official site lists a global marketplace among the features. How it trades is not something we have verified.14 |
| Clans and guilds | Guilds with their own level, capped at 100 and earned through raids, tasks and wars; a guild can opt out of wars by going PvE-only. Founding one costs 15,000,000 gold or 50 diamonds. The About page counts over 1,000 guilds.109 | Not verified — left blank rather than estimated. |
| Where you play | Browser at web.simple-mmo.com, plus iOS and Android apps, from Galahad Creative, the studio behind IdleMMO. The home page claims over 1,000,000 players; the About page says over 400,000.11912 | Not verified — left blank rather than estimated. |

The read
SimpleMMO's travel button spends one step per press, and a step can pay gold or XP from 1 up to your level, an item or a fight. WalkScape's steps are real ones: each step feeds the current action, and finishing the action pays the XP. One fits a desk, the other a commute.
The ladders are built differently. WalkScape has 12 skills that each stop at level 99, with experience still accruing after that. SimpleMMO has one character level, 50 × n XP to clear level n, that runs past 1,000,000, with four gathering skills and crafting levelled separately.
Access decides it for most people today. WalkScape is in closed beta, behind an application and an invite or financial support, with open beta no earlier than Q4 2026. SimpleMMO is out now in a browser and on iOS and Android, with guilds, a player market and weekly world bosses already running.
