Is wplace down right now? Live wplace.live status

Up here, but not loading for you?

Then the problem is between you and wplace. Three checks, fastest first. If wplace loads after any of them, you have found it.

1. Switch to phone data

   Phone data instead of wifi rules out your router, your ISP, and a captive portal in one move.

2. Open a private window

   It disables most extensions. Content blockers and script managers are the usual cause when one browser works and another does not.

3. Change your DNS resolver

   If the address will not resolve, your resolver has a stale or blocked record for it and the site itself is fine.

The same map, without the wait

Zoom in anywhere on Earth and a grid of ten-meter squares appears over the street. Instead of one pixel every 30 seconds, you hold a wallet and spend from it, so a whole building goes down in one save of up to 5,000 pixels.

Before you sign up

50pixels, and they survive making an account

Painting over somebody's fresh work costs more than painting on empty ground, and your own pixels are always cheap to change. Every difference from wplace, row by row.

Start on your own street

1. Find your street

   Search a place or share your location, then zoom in to 15. The grid appears over the buildings, each square 10 meters across.

2. Pick a color and paint

   No cooldown between pixels. Stage as many as you like and commit them in one save, so a whole building goes down at once instead of over a week.

3. Sign in only when you want to keep it

   Your first 50 pixels go down before any of that, and they survive making an account. Google or Discord, no password.

What the check measures

Two requests from our server, side by side, each with a 5 second limit.

• Site. The wplace.live page. Any answer below HTTP 500 counts as up; a 500 or worse, or no answer, counts as down.
• Game server. The health endpoint at backend.wplace.live. Up only when it answers that it is up.

Both up reads as up, one as partly up, and neither as down. The result is held for a minute, so everyone who loads this page inside the same minute sees the same check and the same time. After that, the last result stays up while the next check runs, so the time beside it is what tells you how fresh it is.
