Retriever Spawn City is a settlement on the Survival 6 world of the Dogcraft Server. It has become the biggest settlement near a world spawn since the original Survival 1 city, and one of the biggest of it's era outright.

About

The city generally uses square blocks of RHN built roads as it's structure for building around. The largest central block is the most complete and contains a variety of buildings including the Dogcraft Creative Team HQ, TigerNL's Havana park. The large western Lake Street block is also well filled with builds including the Dogcraft Toursim Office, tijnybricks' Fire Station, and _Maddy_monster_'s Doggy Daycare. Other smaller blocks south of Border Street contain a smattering of largely residential buildings.

On the northside, running along Retriever Boulevard is the transportation hub of the city. On one side of the road are the Survival Railway Network's (SRN) Retriever Grand Central Station, Connected Seas Coalition's (CSC) Spawn Port, and on the other side, the Road & Horse Network's (RHN) Spawn Shelter. Also in this area is the Retriever Stage (by Kurstles) and the northern boundary is the iconic Cyberdog News Network building.

There are also a handful of builds on the outskirts of the city, such as jameslongstrider's distinctive Strawberry, and the jokingly derided Binley Mega Chippy built by Montenator.

The city features numerous embassies to cities and large bases such as City of Tattington, Deepskulk, Waldeen Isles, and Copacawama.

Close nearby to the north of the city are also the larger bases of hubbaherbba and starr274.

History

Early History

The genesis of the city was the building of the CSC Spawn Port and it's short waterfall canal to the nearby lake, which was opened on the 30^th of December 2023. The location of the Port was chosen while balancing requirements of being relatively close to the spawnpoint and also a body of water. In conjunction with this, the RHN's _Shako built the first beltway, Retriever Boulevard.

Following this through January and February, RHN's Spawn Shelter and SRN's Grand Central Station were planned to fit nearby. City streets were expanded to encourage growth, which created the central block, and builds began to pop up around this. Prominent buildings, the CDNN building and Retriever Stage were also created during this period.

On the 2^nd of March, the RHN hosted the Race Across Spawn, in which aimed to travel around Spawn, collecting words at each checkpoint and then solving a word puzzle in the quickest time.

Build Competition

In June, TigerNL and Montenator hosted the return of the Battle of the Spawns event for both Survival 6 spawns, to encourage more activity, which had stagnated. The competition received 12 entries and has generally deemed a success, giving the city much more depth with more urban buildings to complement the existing builds. The results were as follows for Retriever, with prizegiving hosted at Retriever Stage.

1st - tijnybricks 2nd - Artic_2446 3rd - _Maddy_monster_

Later in 2024 and Beyond

Activity in the city slowed after the build competition. The next notable spurt of activity was in the southeast corner of the city, where a handful of residential building were made in early 2025.
