Bconomy can be played inside Discord as a Discord Activity. The Activity opens the full game in a window within Discord, on desktop and mobile, without leaving your server or call.

Starting the Activity

[edit | edit source]
  • Run /bconomy in any server or DM where the Bconomy app is available. /play, /launch, /balance and /profile do the same.
  • Or open the Activities launcher in a Discord server or call, and choose Bconomy.

The Activity signs you in with your Discord account, so your account and progress are the same as in the Web Client and the Mobile App.

Old commands are retired

[edit | edit source]

Bconomy started as a bot played with Discord commands and buttons. That command system is retired: the game is no longer played through bot commands, and the remaining slash commands only open the Activity. Pressing a button on an old Bconomy bot message shows a private reply with links to the Activity, the browser version and the mobile app stores.

Text commands still exist inside the game itself: type them in the Console. See Commands and the Console.

Linking Discord to your account

[edit | edit source]

If you play mainly on the web or mobile, link your Discord account in Settings. A linked account can show your Discord profile on your Bconomy profile card, and Supporters receive a Supporter role on the official server.

Changelog

[edit | edit source]
Release date Update Changes
August 17, 2026 v2026.08.17
  • The bot’s slash commands and their in-chat buttons are retired. You won’t be able to run game commands inside Discord anymore. Use /bconomy or Discord App picker to start the game from now on.
August 11, 2026 v2026.08.11
  • Anyone can now launch the Discord Activity, you no longer need a special role to access it.
  • Use /bconomy to open the game directly as a Discord Activity.
  • Slash command replies now include a note directing you to the Discord Activity or Web Client, with buttons to access either directly from reply.
  • All other slash commands and buttons/dropdowns will stop working next Monday (Aug 17), at which point they will instruct to play via Web Client, Discord Activity or mobile app.
August 7, 2026 v2026.08.07.2
  • On mobile, especially in Discord Activity, typing in chat no longer leaves messages scrolled up behind the keyboard.
August 7, 2026 v2026.08.07
  • Typing in chat inside the Activity on mobile (Android and iOS) should no longer let the keyboard cover the chat or push the view upward, the chat input should stay positioned just above the keyboard.
  • Switching between your main / ironman / hardcore profiles should now work inside the Discord Activity instead of showing an error.
August 1, 2026 v2026.08.01
  • Bconomy can be launched as a Discord Activity: an embedded game window you can play inside Discord.
  • For now, only select few Discord roles will be able to use it. If you’re interested to test it out, ping @Developer role and ask if we can let you in. Later on, it will be enabled for everyone.
  • Eventually, the text bot will be phased out, as the limitations are preventing good feature progress. Web client is already richer than Discord, and that will only grow further.
  • At first, when Activity is available for everyone, fishing, hunting, exploring, mining, working, and the daily reward are available as slash commands; other commands will stop executing. After a while, even those will be removed.
June 5, 2026 v2026.06.05.2
  • Slash shortcuts like /fish, /f, /hunt, /h, /explore, /e, /mine, /m and /work now execute actions from Discord as expected. Previously those aliases would silently do nothing and only the embed buttons worked.
