Grenzstadt
Grenzstadt (formerly Filder) is a Metropolis near the southwestern world border. Its Founder and Mayor is
KingDaKa4.
History
Founding and Early Inactivity
Grenzstadt was created on April 24th, 2025 when
KingDaKa4 decided to start a settlement out by the world border. After several days of walking and searching, he found the perfect spot to settle down. He then proceeded to dig out a hole down to bedrock and sealed it with glass. The excavated materials were subsequently sold in order to finance the creation of the settlement, which he named Filder.
After founding Filder,
KingDaKa4 built several farm buildings near the hole. However, when he suddenly disappeared one day in early July 2025, Filder ceased all activity for the rest of the year.
Revival and Growth
At the end of December 2025,
KingDaKa4 returned to the server. Immediately after his sudden return, he decided to remove the old farm buildings and to rename Filder to Grenzstadt. He replaced the removed buildings with a new mushroom farm and sugarcane farm before taking a break for a few days.
It was only at the end of January when
KingDaKa4 started to invite a few players; notably
VanillaCake__, who quickly became heavily involved in the development of Grenzstadt.
Over the course of February,
VanillaCake__ worked with
KingDaKa4 to radically expand Grenzstadt through major terraforming, frequent advertising, and hours of building. Grenzstadt grew from a 5-player Tribe to a 30-player Town in just the first week of February, and had become a small City by the halfway point of the month.
By March 2026, Grenzstadt had risen to the status of a 100-player Metropolis. It has since become one of the three largest and most active towns on the server in 2026, joined by the larger and more established cities of Windfall and Squirtville.
