What is Taming.io?

1. Choose your starter pet

Before the game starts, you will choose your first pet. Each pet belongs to a unique type - such as fire, water, or rock - and specific skills. Choose one that matches your play style.

2. Collect resources

Go around the map using your mouse and keyboard. Collect:

Wood and stone - construction structures
Berries and apples - heal or feed pets
Chest - Golden apple to unlock new skins and pets

3. Build your base

Build a stronghold with walls, turrets, and a windmill. Windmill is necessary - it automatically produces gold that you need to upgrade the gear and unlock the abilities.

4. Craft weapons and level up

As you collect resources and defeat the enemies, you will reach a level. With each level, you unlock new equipment, weapons, and buildings.

5. More pets

By walking in the world and taming wild animals and using their special taming capacity. Each pet can develop and unlock more powerful forms with special skills, such as:

Stun
Regeneration

Once you become strong enough, fight other players, steal their loot, and expand your area. Build defensive towers and walls to protect your windmill and pets.
