Welcome to CubeScape

Welcome to the official player guide for CubeScape. This world has been enhanced with unique custom systems designed to create a dynamic economy and community.

Select a topic from the sidebar to learn more about the custom NPCs, investment opportunities, and game mechanics.

Cube3D Custom NPC

Known as "God" to some, Cube3D is a mysterious entity from beyond time and space. He offers unique high-stakes gambling and exclusive items.

Interactions

  • Mystery Box (10,000 gp): Buy a box containing a random item. Prizes range from mundane items like Rope or Sand to legendary gear like Rune 2H Swords and the ultra-rare Dragon Sword (1 in 10,000 chance!).
  • Gambling: Challenge Cube3D to a game of Heads or Tails.
    • Wager 50, 100, 500, or 1000 coins.
    • Warning: Cube3D is known to cheat. The odds are tipped in his favor (approx. 45% win rate).
  • The Lottery: Buy a ticket for 1,000 gp. When the global pool reaches 1,000,000 gp, one random ticket holder (must be online) wins an instant 700,000 gp jackpot.

Pyramid Pete Investment NPC

A self-proclaimed "Wall Street Businessman" who promises incredible returns on your investment. Is it too good to be true?

How it Works

Pete runs a High-Yield Investment Program (HYIP).

  • Invest: Give Pete your coins (100 - All In).
  • ROI: You are guaranteed a return of usually 200% (2.0x).
  • The Catch: You are paid from the investments of future players.
  • Payout: You must interact with Pete and select "Collect Profits" to withdraw your owed money.

Warning: If the investment pool runs dry, the scheme collapses, and you may lose your investment!

Tea Seller Passive Income

Located in Varrock, the Tea Seller isn't just selling refreshments. He's looking for business partners.

Investment System

  • Buy-In: Invest 1,000 gp to become a shareholder.
  • Dividends: You earn passive income over time.
  • Rate: 1 gp every 10 minutes.
  • Collection: Visit the Tea Seller and ask to "Collect profits" to withdraw your accumulated dividends.

This is a safe, slow-burn investment compared to Pyramid Pete's high-risk model.

Auction House

The Auction House allows players to buy and sell items globally without needing to meet face-to-face.

Access

Visit the Auctioneers or Auction Clerks found in banks (Varrock, etc.).

  • Requirement: You need a Total Skill level of 100+.
  • Ironmen: Cannot use the Auction House.

Features

  • Browse: Search for items listed by other players.
  • Sell: List your own items for a fixed price.
  • Collect: If you buy an item or your item sells, you must visit a Banker or Auctioneer and select "Collect" to retrieve your item/gold.

Banking 2.0

Bankers have been upgraded with modern financial tools.

Blockchain Storage

Players can "Deposit to Blockchain" and "Withdraw from Blockchain".

  • This converts your in-game GP into a stored digital value on the server's Oracle.
  • Useful for safely storing large amounts of wealth outside your physical bank.

Bank Pins

Secure your account by setting a Bank PIN. Talk to any banker to Set, Change, or Delete your PIN.

Membership

CubeScape offers a membership tier that unlocks additional content.

How to Subscribe

Talk to any Banker and select the Membership option.

  • Cost: 50,000 gp
  • Duration: 7 Days

Benefits

  • Access to member-only skills (Herblore, Thieving, Fletching, etc.).
  • Access to member-only areas and quests.
  • A green chat badge in-game.

Note: While the "Members" webclient is accessible to everyone, you cannot perform member actions without an active subscription.

Competitive Bidding Doors New!

Strategic locations throughout the world (like coordinates 153, 632) are now protected by Competitive Toll Doors. These doors provide access to high-tier resources like:

  • Coal & Mithril Rocks
  • Magic & Yew Trees
  • Iron Rocks

Property Rental & Bidding

Unlike standard doors / toll doors, these can be owned and fought over by players:

Action Description
Rent/Outbid Pay the current rental price to take ownership. If someone else owns it, you must outbid them by 110%.
Grace Period Once you win a property, there is a 15-minute protection window where you cannot be outbid.
Tolls Anyone entering from the outside must pay a toll. Exiting is always free.
Profits Owners can select "Manage Property" to withdraw the accumulated gold from tolls.

Note: Ownership lasts for 24 Hours. If no one outbids you, the contract expires and the door becomes vacant again, resetting the price to its base value.

Sheep Pen Mining Low-Level Mining

A new mining site has been established inside the Lumbridge Sheep Pen (behind the General Store). This area is perfect for new players starting their journey.

Resources

  • Iron Rocks: Several iron outcrops available for mining.
  • Tool Spawn: A Bronze Pickaxe spawns on the ground nearby for those who forgot theirs at the bank.

The area is fully fenced off, making it a safe place to train away from aggressive NPCs.

Lumbridge Shortcuts

Hidden paths in Lumbridge lead to great riches. Be warned, adventurer.

Runite Rock Crossing

A rare Runite Rock has been spotted at coordinates (162, 560). To reach it, you must cross the river using the ancient stepping stones.

Crossing Options

  • Pay Toll (2,500 gp): Guaranteed safe passage.
  • Swim (High Risk): Free, but with a 80% chance of failure. Failure deals massive damage (40-99 HP). Only the desperate should attempt this.

Warning: If you die while swimming, your items will be lost!

Holy Monk

A humble guardian of the light. He acts as a specialized vendor.

Shop Inventory

The Holy Monk sells religious and basic supplies:

  • Bones (Stock: 20) in bulk.
  • Quest Skulls.
  • Unblessed Holy Symbols.
  • Bread.

He is a useful resource for players training Prayer or needing quick food.

Mini-Games Gambling

Feeling lucky? You can try your hand at Heads or Tails against various NPCs in the world.

Where to Play

The following NPCs will play Heads or Tails with you:

  • Men & Women
  • Farmers
  • Thieves & Rogues
  • Al-Kharid Warriors

How it Works

  1. Talk to the NPC and select "Heads or tails".
  2. Choose your wager: 50, 100, 500, or 1000 gp.
  3. Call it: Heads or Tails?
  4. Win: You double your money (2x payout).
  5. Lose: You lose your wager.

Note: The house always has a slight edge!

Platform Analytics WIP

The Platform Dashboard is a new feature currently under development.

Current Features

Right now, it tracks the profitability of General Stores across the world.

Future Road Map

We plan to expand this into a full investment platform where players can:

  • View detailed financial stats for different shops.
  • Invest in specific shops (like the General Store) to earn a share of their profits.
  • Track server-wide economic trends.

Ownable Houses New!

Cubescape is expanding with a persistent housing system! Players can now purchase and own their own private properties across the world.

Current Properties

House Name Location Status / Price
Lumbridge Road 1 (160, 648) - West of General store OWNED BY CUBE3D
Count Draynor St 1 (209, 649) - East of Bank FOR SALE - 250,000 GP

Ownership Perks

  • Privacy: Lock your door to keep out unwanted guests.
  • Persistence: Your ownership persists through server restarts.
  • Interior Design: Houses come pre-furnished with essentials like ranges, tables, and beds.

Future Road Map

The housing market is just beginning! In the near future, we plan to implement:

  • Luxury Mansions: Larger, multi-room estates in prime locations.
  • Custom NPCs: Hire your own personal banker, butler, or shopkeeper to live in your house.
  • Advanced Features: Customizable furniture, garden plots, and player-owned portals.
  • Variable Pricing: High-end real estate for the server's wealthiest moguls.
  • Real Estate Market: Ability for owners to sell their houses directly to other players.
  • Bidding System: A competitive auction system for highly sought-after vacant properties.
