If not mentioned before, i'll simply name it here. Sorry if it's already been brought up previously.
Wurm Online is a totally unique, highly accessible online world that will drag you in, shake you up and down, bite you, annoy you, drive you completely mad and leave you wondering why you didn’t find it a million years ago!
Playing is easy. Just register for free and then download the Java client and packages by clicking on the Click to Play Wurm icon on the site. Oh, you need java, but there is a handy link for java just below. If you want to buy premium membership, just go to the shop and buy premium any time you like. It really is that simple.
Wurm Online had to be different. What was the point of creating something that had been done time and time again? Yes, it would be 3d. Yes it would be multi-player. Yes, you can fight people on the Wild server and go round shouting about it. But it needs to be better than that.
And it is
On Wurm, you can see for miles
On Wurm, you can change the shape of the terrain by digging and moving dirt
On Wurm, you can grow things, pave things, move things
On Wurm, you can dig till you hit rock, then keep digging till you make vast caverns rich with iron ore, silver, and even gold.
On Wurm you can do all that, and more!
Wurm is a skill lead game. When you start, you can barely do anything, checking out your skills by pressing F2 will reveal a miserable set of skills. But from the moment you pick up a shovel and start digging, your digging skill starts to build. You chop down a tree and your wood cutting skill increases. Fight a deer with a sword and your fight skill increases. Many things in Wurm are hard to do, requiring patience and skill. But anyone can build skill in Wurm. Anyone can be a mason, a carpenter, a blacksmith, a weapons smith, a digger, a cook, a handyman (or woman), a tailor, a leather worker – it is all there to learn, just pick up a tool and get working!
