Layer Land
Steam
Creatures have built their unique personalities from memory and emotion in Layerland.
They create their own ecosystem with their own rules and thoughts, just like human society.

We love the ‘enemy to friend’ dynamic. Even if the player battles the creatures to the death,
we can still be their friend if you catch the creature.
From the casual talk to unique emotional responses, pets can be domesticated to be part of your life, to be your friend.


Pets will respond differently depending on emotional buildup and their unique personalities.
What kind of personality will your pet have?
You might expect one, but no one can truly guess until you catch them!


In Layer land, pets support players by using their unique talents to overcome challenges
and make the world less frightening.
They help with tasks like foraging, cooking, and building, and contribute creatively
by sculpting, drawing, and filming. Every task can be automated!
Their artistic creations become lasting parts of the ecosystem you build together.


Build your own house, place furniture, and decorate a cozy home for you and your pets.
Housing is a strategy, a core memory.

100 kinds of pets are here, but that’s just the beginning. Players can create entirely new pets
through the breeding system. Your name will be featured in the new pet’s illustrated guide!

Layerland reflects the exact terrain of Earth through Cesium technology! Mountains, oceans,
and grassfields from the real world you’ve only imagined exploring will become your playground in Layerland.


Explore a true-to-scale Earth built from real satellite data!
Dimensional rifts open gates that transport players to alternate worlds—each with a completely different ecosystem, yet mapped to the same coordinates.


Invasion Gates can appear anywhere, anytime—without warning!
Whether the monsters pouring through are a deadly threat or a rare opportunity
for valuable loot depends entirely on you.
Defend your base with fortifications built alongside your loyal pet, and claim precious rewards
for your bravery.
