Everything you need to go from your first visit to your first character.

Characters and progress are specific to each world. Character-slot limits are set by the world, so the number available can vary.

A few common questions

Before you set off.

Do I need to install a desktop client?

No. The browser client is available through Play in browser. A desktop download is not currently offered.

Can I use the same character in every world?

Your account is shared, but each world keeps its own characters and progress. Create or select a character when joining a different world.

Why do worlds have different features?

World owners choose their edition and configure their own world. Classic and Odyssey Worlds have different interfaces and feature sets.

Can I create my own world?

Sign in to the browser client to check world-creation eligibility. Availability depends on platform settings and account requirements. Existing owners can manage their worlds there.

Beyond the game

Good company.
Great stories.

A world becomes a place worth returning to because of the people you meet there.
