In [[Game updates/20130625|version 1.3]] and later, Online Server can be used to connect to any Blockheads server. It allows up to 32 players (16 on cloud servers and most Blockserver servers) to play at once. It requires the server's IP or domain and server port to connect. Nicknames and avatars can be chosen at the server connect menu. The connection option may be used to connect to locally-hosted worlds as well. Starting in [[Game updates/20140402|version 1.5]], cloud servers can also be created from a device and are hosted in the cloud.
