Toontown Rewritten

On August 20, 2013, Disney officially announced the closure of their popular online game and the first-ever family oriented MMO, Toontown Online. In the time between the announcement of closing and its final closure, a few online friends worked with one goal in mind: Find a way to keep Toontown alive. On the day Toontown Online closed, Toontown Rewritten was officially announced. Toontown Rewritten continues today with over 1,750,000 registered players. Above all, we value three concepts that we believe to be central to the Toontown experience: For one, we provide a safe place for people of all ages, from Children to Adults, to cooperate online. Secondly, we ensure that Toontown Rewritten continues right where Toontown Online left off, providing an experience that we believe the original developers would be proud of. Finally, we believe that Toontown should be a place that’s fun for everyone. So whether you’re a returning player or just finding Toontown today, we hope you’ll have a Toontastic time exploring the ever-expanding Tooniverse! Are YOU Toon Enough?
