Getting started in Wurm Online (or Wurm Unlimited)
When you first arrive in Wurm, it's very much about survival and there are no quest givers to hold you by the hand or lead the way. You yourself must understand that the first thing you need to do is to set up some sort of shelter for yourself. The game can be overwhelming at first and you have no idea what to do, so this tutorial series softens that blow a bit by explaining some of the basics to getting started in Wurm, but without ruining the fun of learning and discovery!
