Try The Free Demo

Find out what life is like as an exile in Puddleby before you decide to purchase an account. You can actually play a limited version of the game for free by following the instructions below.

If you’ve never played before, we strongly recommend you read our What is Clan Lord and Getting Started pages, or you’ll be horribly confused.

Requires either macOS (10.6–10.14) or Windows XP or later; at least a 28.8 kbps Internet connection, and a sense of adventure.

Download the latest combined version of the Clan Lord application and data files:

Demo for Mac OS X (10.6 – 10.14) (~ 130 MB .dmg)

Demo for Windows (~ 130 MB .zip)

(Note: The game world is updated every month or so.)
Uncompress Clan Lord and run it.
Choose “Character Manager” from the File menu. Click “Try the Demo!”
Wait for any updates to be downloaded. The client and data files may be updated separately. (Experiencing difficulties downloading the updates? Help!)
Double-click any character name. (They’re all named “Agratis...” so everybody knows they’re a free demo character.)
Listen to a few helpful words of advice while you customize your demo character.
Meet people and explore the world. Almost anyone should be glad to help you find your way around.
Demo characters aren’t saved, and are subject to a few restrictions. They’re also a little stronger than a brand new character, so you can explore a bit more easily.
You can play as long and as often as you like. When you’re ready to join for good, just create an account.
With the Demo version of Clan Lord, you can also watch movies recorded by people playing the full game. See the Related Links page to find player movie archives.
Have fun!
