Metaplay's sample projects fall into two broad groups:

• Foundational starters - Minimal Unity integrations you can copy into your own project.
• Reference games - Feature-rich projects that demonstrate live ops workflows.

Foundational Starters

Hello World

This is the tiny, friendly starter that gets you from zero to a running Metaplay scene. Open the project, press play, and you’ll see how the Metaplay client, shared code, and backend all connect without any of the extra noise.

Grab the source from the latest release on the Metaplay Portal.

Reference Games

Wordle Tutorial

Follow the Wordle Tutorial if you like learning by doing. It shows how to make a simple game (a Wordle clone) from scratch using Metaplay. You’ll build up features gradually, so it’s great when you want a guided, step-by-step walkthrough.

You can either follow the tutorial steps or browse the completed sample source. The sample is included with the Metaplay SDK in the developer portal downloads archive.

Idler

Idler is a testing ground for Metaplay features. A complete live-service example that covers leagues, events, in-game purchases, analytics, party systems, and a highly customizable dashboard. Use it when you want to see how all the moving parts fit together in a simple idle game.

Idler sample source code is included with the Metaplay SDK in the developer portal downloads archive.

Orca

Orca is a real merge-2 game developed on Metaplay and open-sourced by Zaibatsu Interactive for demo use. It shows the same live-service features as Idler but tailored to merge gameplay: custom dashboards, extensive game configs, data-driven design, and the kinds of systems a casual mobile game needs.

If you’re building a merge-style game or want to see how a full game can be built on Metaplay, Orca is a good place to start. The docs are available at Orca Sample and the source is available on GitHub: https://github.com/metaplay-shared/orca.
