## What it is
Veloren is an open-source, multiplayer voxel action-adventure RPG inspired by Cube World, Dwarf Fortress, and Breath of the Wild. It features a procedurally generated fantasy world with combat, dungeons, crafting, and self-hostable multiplayer servers, written in Rust.

## Use cases
- play an open-source voxel RPG
- host my own multiplayer game server over LAN

- you want to self-host multiplayer servers
- you want to contribute to or study a large Rust game codebase

## When to avoid
- you want a polished AAA game experience
- you need a finished, stable game - it is still in active development
- you want a single-player-only story-driven RPG
