How it works

Dive. Break. Keep.

Dive01

Pick a trench, drop in, manage your air. Each trench is harder, darker and richer than the one above it.

Break02

Every trench has a leviathan at the bottom. Read its pattern, time the harpoon, take what it was guarding.

Keep03

Everything you surface is yours: craft better gear, trade it, or hold it. Nothing you earn is locked in our database.

Six trenches

Every trench goes darker, and richer.

Keep scrolling to go down. The water, the walls and what lives in them change with the depth. So does what you can bring back up.

Trench 10 to 40 m

The Shallows

Sunlit reef, soft sand and easy pickings. The place every diver learns the kick, and the only trench where the boss is more grumpy than deadly.

Leviathan

Reefback / the hermit in the shipwreck bell

Sea Glass
White Pearl
Coral Chip
Brine Salt
Driftwood

Trench 240 to 200 m

Kelp Dark

The light goes green, then grey. Kelp towers hide the way down and the way back up, and something long keeps pace with you in the fronds.

Leviathan

Kelpwyrm / the eel that owns the forest

Kelp Fiber
Amber Nacre
Moon Jelly Oil

Trench 3200 to 1,000 m

Midnight Shelf

A rock shelf at the edge of the dark. Your lamp is the only sun here, and every other light in the water belongs to something with teeth.

Leviathan

Lantern Maw / the light you should not follow

Lantern Oil
Black Pearl
Shelf Iron

Trench 41,000 to 4,000 m

The Abyss

Flat, black and endless. Motes of cold light drift past the ruins of whoever built here first, and their statue is still awake.

Leviathan

Drowned Colossus / the statue that remembers

Abyssal Ink
Ghost Nacre
Cold Gold

Trench 54,000 to 9,000 m

Hadal Rift

A crack in the seafloor that goes down further than the maps do. Pressure glass grows on the walls, and the walls move.

Leviathan

Riftkraken / the arms in the dark

Kraken Tooth
Rift Quartz
Pressure Glass

Trench 6below the rift

The Vent

Black smokers, boiling water and gold that nobody has surfaced yet. The leviathan sleeps on it. Wake it carefully.

Leviathan

Vent Leviathan / the one the gold belongs to

Vent Gold
Obsidian Shard
Sulfur Bloom
Heart of the Vent

The Divers

3,333 Divers. One is yours.

Pearlhold Divers are BEP-721 tokens on BNB Smart Chain. Each one is a playable character with its own suit, helmet and harpoon, drawn pixel by pixel, and each one earns from the game whether you are in it or not.

Supply: 3,333
Price: TBA
Chain: BNB Chain

Your character
A Diver is the body you dive in. Suit tier sets how deep you can go, harpoon tier sets what you can break.
Rentals
Not diving tonight? Rent your Diver to another player and take a cut of what they surface. Nothing leaves your wallet.
Daily Diver share
Every day a share of game fees is split across every Diver in circulation. Holding one pays even when you are not in the water.

Six suit lines shown. Traits revealed at mint.

Questions divers ask

Before you get wet

What is Pearlhold?+

A skill-based pixel-art diving game. You dive six trenches, fight six leviathans, craft gear from what you surface and trade it with other divers. Your Diver is yours: an NFT on BNB Smart Chain, not a row in our database.

What chain, what standard?+

BNB Smart Chain. The Divers are BEP-721 tokens, the BNB Chain equivalent of ERC-721. Gear, resources and the in-game economy settle there too.

How many Divers, and what do they cost?+

3,333 Divers. Mint price and per-wallet limit are not announced yet. The waitlist decides who dives first, and the top of the XP leaderboard gets the best of it.

What does a Diver do in the game?+

It is your character. Suit and harpoon tiers decide how deep you can go and what you can break. Divers you are not using can be rented to other players for a cut. Every day a share of game fees is split across all Divers: the daily Diver share.

Is the game skill-based or idle?+

Skill-based. Timing your swings, managing air and reading a boss matters more than how long you leave a tab open. Rentals exist so a Diver is never wasted, not so the game plays itself.

Do I need to connect a wallet to join the waitlist?+

No. We only ask for a public wallet address, typed in. We never ask for a seed phrase, a private key or a signature, and nothing on this site sends a transaction or moves funds.

How does the leaderboard work?+

Every task you confirm adds XP. The board ranks the top 100 by task XP and updates every minute. New posts on X bring new tasks, so it keeps moving until the list closes.
