Capture the Wool (CTW) is a competitive team Wool game similar to the game Capture the Flag. Each team must capture the other team's wools and defend their own. The game was released to the Prototype Lobby on September 21, 2018,[1] fully released to the Arcade Games on August 26, 2020,[2] and moved to the Wool Games with the lobby's release on August 14, 2024.[3]

Capture the Wool games are ongoing meaning that players will be sent to a game already in progress instead of queueing for another round.

Gameplay[]

40 players are split into two teams, Red and Blue. Each team must build across the map in an attempt to capture the other team's two wools as well as defend their own wools from being taken; Red captures Blue's Green and Aqua wool, and Blue captures Red's Yellow and Orange wool. The woolholder(s) must get back to their home base and place the wool in the spaces at the back of their spawn.

Other tips/features[]

  • Multiple people are able to pick up the same wool.
  • Players on a given team cannot enter their own wool rooms.
  • Some parts of the map are breakable.
  • Multiple kits can be purchased at the same time.
  • Entering the enemy wool room rewards better gear.
  • The bossbar at the top of the screen shows where all wools are.
