The courier's handbook
Courier World is a little planet you can walk all the way round. You're its courier: run and jump about, fly to the moon and Mars, and chat with the people who live there and with other players. Behind the town is an on-chain economy: 3,333 Courier NFTs work out of player-run post offices and earn $STAMP, which trades in a Uniswap pool.
Walking about is free and needs nothing but a browser. A wallet on Robinhood Chain lets you play as your own couriers, run a post office and earn. Exploring and chatting are just for fun: they never earn $STAMP, which only comes from couriers on duty at post offices.

Nothing you do on the planet earns $STAMP by itself: it comes only from couriers on duty at a post office (see Post offices). When the treasury runs a drop, the treasure hunt's coins pay that token. (Once the planet worlds are in the game, a planet's owner can also charge visitors a ticket: that's other players' $STAMP changing hands, not new $STAMP.)
Talk to everyone on the planet in any language: press Enter (or tap π¬ Tap to chat on a phone), type, and send. Your message shows in the chat box and as a speech bubble over your courier. Text only: links and wallet addresses aren't allowed, so nobody can post scams, and messages are up to 140 characters, one every two seconds. Tap someone's name in the chat box to mute them; the settings (βοΈ) can hide chat or unmute everyone.
Tap π· (or press C) for photo mode. The buttons step aside and the camera is yours: drag to look all the way round, from overhead down to the ground looking up at the sky; scroll or pinch to zoom from the whole planet's curve right in to your courier's eyes. Set the clock to any hour (sunsets are lovely), hide your courier if you like, then press the shutter (or Space) to save the picture, or share it straight from your phone. Press C, Esc or Done to go back to playing.
Players show as their wallet address (or "Guest"). To pick a name instead, open the Post Office panel, tap βοΈ Pick a name, type 3 to 15 letters, numbers or _, and save: your wallet signs to confirm (free, no transaction). Your name then shows on your name tag, in chat, on your post office and on the leaderboard. Names are first come, first served, and you can change yours once a day (or go back to your wallet address).
The Orb shows paid ads from other projects, each for a set time (several take turns every 20 seconds), and the ad on it also plays on Times Square's big screens. Tapping either opens the ad's card with its website and chart. Every ad is checked by the team before it goes up, but an ad is not an endorsement: always do your own research before you buy anything or connect your wallet. Want your project on the Orb? DM @PlayCourierWld on X.
The rocket in the neon district is the Space Express. Stand by it and press E (or tap Hi), then pick where to fly:
Couriers on the same world see and chat with each other. Walk up to anyone, frog, Martian or astronaut, and press E to chat. The arrow at the top points the way back to the rocket.
A ticket is sent from your wallet to the Courier World treasury and lasts an hour: fly home any time from the rocket by the landing pad, and the rocket brings you home when it runs out. You need to be logged in and signed in to the hunt (a free signature) so the game's server can check your ticket. Your ticket survives a reload: fly back from the neon district.
Days pass every 12 minutes, showers roll over now and then, and the town's people wave, chat and go about their day.
Every courier has a look and a ride, fixed at the reveal by a secret committed before the mint, so nobody could snipe the rare ones. The art is drawn on-chain as a postage stamp: its value shows the courier's delivery power, a badge shows its level, and an ON DUTY postmark appears while it works. Log in with a wallet that holds couriers and you play as one.
| Ride | Chance | Delivery power | Routes used |
|---|---|---|---|
| On Foot | 45% | 100 | 1 |
| Skateboard | 25% | 160 | 1 |
| Bicycle | 17% | 260 | 2 |
| Moped | 9% | 450 | 3 |
| Paper Plane | 4% | 800 | 4 |
The mint is over. Couriers trade on OpenSea, with a 5% royalty on sales. A courier on duty can't be transferred until you take it off duty.
Skins change how you look, to you and to every player around you. They never change what you earn: $STAMP only comes from couriers on duty at post offices. Mint them in the Post office panel, then press Wear on one you own.
| Rarity | Designs | How many |
|---|---|---|
| Common | Night Rider, Chef, Pirate, Gardener, Neon Scooter | 600 |
| Rare | Astronaut, Samurai Postman, Robot Courier, Ninja, Hoverboard, Neon Bike | 320 |
| Legendary | Golden Courier, Hologram Courier, Moonwedge supercar (Gold, Rosso, Neon) | 79 |
A companion walks (or hovers) along behind your courier wherever you go, on the planet, the moon and Mars. They're bought only with $STAMP, in the Post office panel, and every bit of it goes to the Courier World treasury. Own more than one? They can all follow you at once, in pairs behind your courier: pick which ones in the panel. Every player around you sees them too: the game's server checks on chain that your wallet owns them.
| Tier | Companions | Price | How many of each | Per wallet |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Pets | Cat, Dog, Frog | 100 $STAMP | 300 | 5 |
| Space buddies | Mini UFO, Robot Drone, Little Martian | 250 $STAMP | 150 | 3 |
| Legendary | Golden Stamp Spirit, Mini Rocket | 500 $STAMP | 50 | 2 |
| Mecha | Mecha Guardian, Colossus | 2,500 $STAMP | 30 | 1 |
| Anime | Sakura, Luna, Hana | 3,000 $STAMP | 25 | 1 |
The contract: 0x4254β¦49B7. Reviewed by IMD Swarm (audit report); its findings were fixed afterwards.
Each Courier Planet will be a world of its own inside Courier World: its owner will explore it and build on it, and can open it to other players for a ticket in $STAMP. A daily treasure on your planet is planned too. Buy one in the Post office panel, with $STAMP only: every bit of it goes to the Courier World treasury.
The planet worlds aren't in the game yet: they come next. Buy a planet now and its world is waiting for you when they land. Until then a planet is yours to hold, see in the panel and trade.
| Planets | Price | Per buy | Per wallet |

Stand on the pier, on a bridge over the bay, or at the water's edge, face the water and press E (tap Hi on a phone). When the float dips, press E again to hook the fish, then hold E to reel and let go to give it line: keep the marker in the green until it's in. Walk off and you reel in. The game's server picks when a fish bites, checks you really stood at the water, didn't land it before the bite and stayed put, and picks the species only once it's landed, so letting fish go never helps.
| Rarity | Species | Chance | How many ever |
|---|---|---|---|
| Common | Sardine, Mackerel, Anchovy, Sea Bream, Mullet, Herring, Goby, Old Boot | 60% | Never runs out |
| Uncommon | Pufferfish, Clownfish, Flounder, Red Snapper, Parrotfish, Seahorse, Message in a Bottle | 28% | Never runs out |
| Rare | Lionfish, Swordfish, Octopus, Manta Ray, Moonfish | 9.2% | 500 each (20 a day, across everyone) |
| Epic | Coelacanth, Giant Squid, Anglerfish | 2.4% | 100 each (5 a day, across everyone) |
| Legendary | Golden Stampfish | 0.4% | 21 (1 a day, across everyone) |

Open a post office for 0.005 ETH. It comes with a trainee courier (60 power) who starts work straight away, so you can earn before you own an NFT. Put your own couriers on duty to add their power. Each office has a number of desks (couriers on duty at once) and routes; faster rides use more routes.
| Tier | Desks | Routes | Upgrade cost |
|---|---|---|---|
| Kiosk | 2 | 3 | included |
| Branch | 4 | 7 | 100 $STAMP |
| Depot | 6 | 14 | 400 $STAMP |
| Hub | 9 | 24 | 1,500 $STAMP |
| HQ | 12 | 40 | 5,000 $STAMP |
Upgrades go one tier at a time, with a 24-hour wait between them. Collect your $STAMP whenever you like from the post office panel.
Invite friends: when someone opens an office with your invite, you get 2.5% of what their office collects (taken from their share).
Couriers go from level 1 to 10. Each level adds +12% to its base power, so a level 10 courier has 2.08Γ the power it started with. Training costs 25 Γ levelΒ² $STAMP, and levels stay with the NFT if it changes hands.
| Level | 1β2 | 2β3 | 3β4 | 4β5 | 5β6 | 6β7 | 7β8 | 8β9 | 9β10 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| $STAMP | 25 | 100 | 225 | 400 | 625 | 900 | 1,225 | 1,600 | 2,025 |
From level 1 to 10 costs 7,125 $STAMP in all.
Your share of each block's reward is your offices' delivery power over everyone's.
Nothing here is financial advice. Tokens can lose value; only trade what you're happy to lose.
Tokens are made by players, not by Courier World. Most go to zero: do your own research. Tokens that copy the game's own names or break the rules aren't shown in the game, but still trade on-chain.
The tokens come from the Courier World treasury (5% of every Launchpad launch, and partner projects' tokens). Drops are funded only by the treasury, which can pause claims if anything looks wrong. The drops contract was reviewed by IMD Swarm: read the audit. The partner drops use the same contract; the small list that says which partner tokens it can drop was reviewed by us (see AUDIT.md, section 16).
