===Starting the Game===
You can adjust your game settings on either launcher before logging in. You may want to turn your graphics down to medium if you are on an older computer as Wurm can be very intensive. You can adjust these settings as needed.

==Getting Started==
Your food and water indicators are at the top left of the screen, as well as your [[nutrition]] indicator. Running low on water will make your actions take longer and make you regenerate [[stamina]] slower. Food also has a similar effect when it gets low, and if you have any nutrition left, you will fast when your food drops to 8%. [[Fasting]] refills your food indicator, but removes a percentage of your nutrition.
Starting cities have wells that you may use to obtain water. You may also find fountains and larger bodies of water in your travels, any of which may be used for drinking or filling a [[container]] with water to take with you. Some containers useful for storing water include a [[pottery jar]], a [[waterskin]], and a [[small bucket]]. To fill, '''activate''' the container and then '''right-click''' on the water in a fountain or on a tile that is partially submerged in water and select '''fill'''.
For food, you can locate '''Resource nodes''', '''right-click''' them and select '''Lore''' to see if they might contain food and select '''Forage''' or '''Botanize''' to try to collect their contents. It may take some time to find items you can eat and you will need to search around to find the right type of Resource node that has edible food in it. You can also use your carving knife or a butchering knife to butcher meat from animals you have killed or corpses of animals that you are allowed to butcher. '''Activate''' the knife and '''right-click''' the corpse, then select '''butcher'''. Once you are done, '''right-click''' the butchered corpse and select '''open''' to see the contents. To eat food, '''right-click''' the food and select '''eat'''. The quality and type of food determines how much nutrition you gain or lose when eating, and hot food restores more nutrition than cold food. :'''Read More''': [[Campfire]] | [[Cooking]] | [[Firemaking]] | [[Food]] | [[Water]] | [[Woodcutting]] | [[Leatherworking]] | [[Pottery]] | [[Foraging]] | [[Botanizing]] | [[Resource nodes]]
===Next Steps===
The percentages listed on the create menus is the chance that you will succeed, taking into account tool and material quality, and your skill. However, unlucky streaks can and will happen. Failing ten times in a row with 95% success rate is very bad luck, not a bug. Any items in red cannot be crafted with your current skill level.
The 25 [[Quality level|quality]] [[longswordlong sword]] you get at the beginning is barely good enough for killing [[Large rat|rat]]s, so you may want to consider creating yourself a new weapon that may be [[improve]]d, or even go for a new [[shield]]. Bows allow you to deal ranged damage without receiving any yourself, [[long bow]]s have such a range that most creatures are unable to see '''or''' attack you.
