Cauldron Mastery

An idle RPG about a small alchemist with a big cauldron.

Tap Brew to get a random piece of gear, then keep it or melt it down. Reagents pile up while you're away, and the alchemist fights her way through ten moonlit realms on her own.

  • One tap, one random artefact, one quick compare
  • Idle, not passive: you choose stats, weapons and spells
  • 40 weapons, 10 essences and 8 gear slots
  • Auto-brew with your own filter, and it never equips for you

Our promise: no ads. Money buys time and looks, never quintessence or more power than you could earn by playing. Brewing odds are always one tap away.

Voidara

Hold the beacon. Hold the line.

Humanity holds a frontier sector against the Hollow: once-human fleets that came back crewed by nothing. Refit your capital ship, recruit pilots and fight in sessions of three to eight minutes.

  • A capital ship with 10 modules, from Bastion to Monarch hull
  • A 12-sector campaign with auto-battles and manual skills
  • 20 pilots across 5 rarities, each with 6 gear slots
  • Alliances, Arena PvP, Beacon War and weekly Boss Hunts

The studio

A small studiowith a hard shell

Real Coconut Studios is a side project that got serious: one developer, evenings and weekends, and two games built properly from the ground up.

Both games are made for short sessions. Cauldron Mastery asks for a few two-to-five-minute check-ins a day, and a round of Voidara takes three to eight minutes. They keep progressing while you're away, with plenty of depth for when you come back.

Each game runs on Unity 6 on your phone and on our own servers behind it, so your progress is saved and every fight is checked on the server.

Fair to play

Paying buys time and convenience, never exclusive power. The odds of every random reward are shown in the game.

Respect your time

Short sessions, progress while you're away, and no forced ads.

Tested before trusted

Voidara's fairness rules run as automated tests on every build, so a bad pricing change can't slip through.

Our mission is to make games you play for a minute and keep for years

Short sessions, deep systems, fair monetization. That's the whole recipe.

  1. Foundation

    Servers, accounts, saves and the build pipeline, before any gameplay.

    Cauldron Mastery: done

  2. Core loop

    The minute-to-minute game. For Cauldron Mastery: brew, equip, fight.

    Cauldron Mastery: now

  3. Progression

    Upgrades, realms and the long-term goals that keep you coming back.

    next

  4. Soft launch

    A quiet release in a few countries to tune difficulty and fix crashes.

    with playtesters

  5. Social

    Covens, alliances, wars and leagues to play with other people.

    after soft launch

  6. Global launch

    Worldwide release on the App Store and Google Play, then regular updates.

Questions

When do the games come out?

Neither game has a release date yet. Cauldron Mastery is building its core loop, and Voidara is finishing its interface before a closed test. Sign up for the launch email and we'll tell you on the day.

Can I play early?

Yes. Voidara needs testers for its Google Play closed test and on TestFlight, and Cauldron Mastery will need testers for its first build. See Playtesting.

Will the games be pay-to-win?

No. Both are free to play with optional purchases. In Voidara, paying buys time and convenience, never exclusive power. Both games show the odds for every random reward, and Cauldron Mastery has no ads at all.

Which languages will they support?

Cauldron Mastery launches in English. Voidara is playable in English and German.
