WorldBox - God Simulator Maps & Locations Guide: Every Area Covered

Q: How many races are there in WorldBox?

Four civilised races ship as standard: Humans, Elves, Dwarves and Orcs. Update 0.50 Monolith Awakens added new sapient civilisations on top of those, including Ribbits and Coolbeaks, which emerge when a Monolith rewrites the genes of frogs and penguins.

Q: How do I stop disasters from destroying my world?

Open World Laws and look at the very bottom right, where Natural Disasters and Other Disasters sit as separate toggles. Switching both off stops tornadoes, earthquakes and volcanoes from spawning on their own, and leaves destruction entirely in your hands.

Q: What does the Monolith actually do?

It rewrites genes and species traits in the area around it, and it can grant consciousness to creatures that had none. That is the mechanism behind the new civilisations in 0.50, so a Monolith placed next to a group of penguins on Permafrost can produce a Coolbeak settlement.

Q: Is there a way to win WorldBox?

No. There is no win state, no score and no ending. The 37 powers in the destruction tab and the 16 world types in the generator exist to let you set up a situation and watch it play out, which is why most players set themselves a goal such as one race surviving on an islands map.

Q: How do I make ground permanently unusable?

Convert it to Wasteland Biome, either by bombing the area with atomic bombs or by holding an Acid Cloud over it. Nothing grows on Wasteland and no civilisation will settle it, so it is the only truly permanent change you can make to a map short of turning it into ocean.

EarlyGuides Editorial Team

Researched and editorially reviewed. Updated August 12, 2026.

Maxim Karpenko's pixel god game hands you a blank map, 37 destruction powers and no objective whatsoever. Four civilised races (Humans, Elves, Dwarves and Orcs) found cities, group into kingdoms and declare wars on their own while you either help them or drop a meteorite on them. Update 0.50 Monolith Awakens, which opened its Steam beta on 1 April 2025, added Ribbits and Coolbeaks as new sapient civilisations plus per species cultures, languages and religions. The map generator can produce 16 different world types, so the only thing a run has in common with the last one is the physics.

WorldBox - God Simulator features distinct areas with increasing difficulty. This guide covers every major location in progression order: what to do, what to get, and when to move on. For the step-by-step path, see our walkthrough.

Area Progression Order

Order	Location	Difficulty	Key Rewards	Recommended Build
1	Grass Biome	Safe for a city you have just placed	Reliable farmland, low hostile spawn rate, fast early population growth	Elves
2	Savanna	Best opening biome for a race you want to win	Highest early food throughput, Cows and Sheep as free protein	Elves
3	Permafrost	Hostile to any race except Coolbeaks	Coolbeak settlement ground, Snowmen and White Walkers as permanent map pressure	Humans
4	Jungle	Strong for wood, risky for fire	Highest wood yield of any biome, dense cover, Monkey harassment	Humans
5	Wasteland Biome	Player made, uninhabitable	Permanent denial of ground, visible record of where you intervened	Humans

Grass Biome: Starting Area

The most common biome in a generated world and the one with the best survival rate for a brand new city. Food is steady, hostile spawns are rare, and nothing about the terrain punishes a small population while it finds its feet.

Attribute	Detail
Difficulty	Safe for a city you have just placed
Key Rewards	Reliable farmland, low hostile spawn rate, fast early population growth
Recommended Build	Elves
Key Equipment	Meteorite

What to Do Here

Learn the basics of World laws that rewrite the simulation. This is where you practice without heavy punishment.
Collect starting resources and your first equipment upgrade.
Clear all main content before moving to Savanna.
If you're struggling, read our beginner's guide.

Savanna: Early Game

High fertility plus passive animals such as Cows and Sheep make Savanna the strongest cradle in the game. A kingdom seeded here reaches its second and third city noticeably faster than the same kingdom seeded on plain grass.

Attribute	Detail
Difficulty	Best opening biome for a race you want to win
Key Rewards	Highest early food throughput, Cows and Sheep as free protein
Recommended Build	Elves
Key Equipment	Meteorite

What to Do Here

Focus on mastering Kingdoms, clans and war declarations. It's critical from this point on.
Farm for Meteorite if you don't have it yet.
Complete all objectives for maximum rewards.
Prepare for the difficulty spike in Permafrost.

Permafrost: Mid Game

Blue tinted soil and pine trees, and the biome where Snowmen and White Walkers spawn hostile to nearly everything alive. Coolbeaks are the civilisation that settles here happily, which is exactly why the 0.50 uplift setups seed penguins in the cold.

Attribute	Detail
Difficulty	Hostile to any race except Coolbeaks
Key Rewards	Coolbeak settlement ground, Snowmen and White Walkers as permanent map pressure
Recommended Build	Humans
Key Equipment	Meteorite

What to Do Here

This is the main skill check. Bring an optimized build.
Tornado becomes accessible here. Prioritize getting it.
Master Traits, genes and monolith mutations for the boss encounters.
Check our boss guide if you get stuck.

Jungle: Late Game

Fast plant growth and high wood yields, offset by Monkeys that harass villagers and by how quickly fire spreads through the canopy. A Napalm Bomb dropped anywhere near jungle will burn far more than the radius suggests.

Attribute	Detail
Difficulty	Strong for wood, risky for fire
Key Rewards	Highest wood yield of any biome, dense cover, Monkey harassment
Recommended Build	Humans
Key Equipment	Tornado

What to Do Here

Full build optimization is expected by this point.
Tornado should be your primary, fully upgraded.
Terraforming and biome painting mastery starts mattering here.
Farm resources for the push into Wasteland Biome.

Wasteland Biome: Endgame

Not a biome you find so much as one you create, by bombing an area with atomic bombs or holding an Acid Cloud over it. Nothing grows and no civilisation settles it, so the fastest way to permanently shrink the usable map is to make more of it.

Attribute	Detail
Difficulty	Player made, uninhabitable
Key Rewards	Permanent denial of ground, visible record of where you intervened
Recommended Build	Humans
Key Equipment	Tornado

What to Do Here

This is endgame. Best-in-slot gear and a perfected build are mandatory.
See our boss guide for endgame fight strategies.
The reward loop: clear content → upgrade → push harder content.
Experiment with Ribbits for variety once you've mastered the meta.

Exploration Tips

Clear areas in order: Grass Biome → Savanna → Permafrost → Jungle → Wasteland Biome. Skipping areas means missing resources you'll need later.
Check every corner: Hidden caches and secrets are often in non-obvious locations.
Match your equipment: Some areas favor different equipment types.
Read the walkthrough: Our walkthrough provides exact progression milestones for each area.
Don't rush: Clearing an area fully gives more resources than speedrunning two areas.
