You can change the RPC endpoint that the Dark Forest client connects to in the settings pane of the game.

  • In addition to the game default xDAI-provided https://rpc-df.xdaichain.com endpoint, xDAI also provides a number of other public endpoints.

  • You can also run your own node locally or on the cloud

  • Cloud providers like Quicknode will run a node for you with a few clicks for a monthly fee.

  • Last but not least, Pocket Network has gifted the Dark Forest community an xDAI RPC load-balanced endpoint node at https://poa-xdai.gateway.pokt.network/v1/lb/60b13899d3279c22da2a444d
