→First Steps: add GV
== First Steps ==
* Move about with the keys W, S, A and D keys. Turn by holding the left mouse button and moving the mouse. There is no jump key; movement in Wurm is very simplistic.
* You will start the game in a starting town on [[Golden Valley]]. Depending on the kindom you chose, it will be [[Glitterdale]] for the kingdom of [[Mol-Rehan]] or [[First Light]] for the kingdom of [Newtown[Jenn-Kellon]] (NT). NT is The starting towns are a relatively safe haven for new players, but as soon as you leave NT them you must be wary of the many [[creatures]] that inhibit the lands of Wurm.* Take your bearings using the [[settlement token]] in the center of NT. This is found on the path next to the trader hutsyour starting town. On top of the token is a compass.* If you get attacked by a [[creature]], try to flee into water. Only a few animals ([[Large Rat|rats]] and , [[Brown Bear|bears]] and [[Crocodile|crocodiles]]) can pursue you across water.* Village guards will attack creatures that enter [[deed]]ed land so if you can make it into a deeded area (such as Newtownyour starting town) you should be safe.* For the first 24 hours of your Wurm playing time (real-life time spent in-game) you can get free food at the huts bartenders in NT the starting town and your "built-in" light source will always stay on.
However, after 24 hours have passed, you must obtain food via cooking or trade and you will not have a light source. Hence, it is wise to spend time learning to feed yourself and aquiring a light source. For cooking you will need a few items:

* To [[forage]] for food ingredients, find a patch of [[grass]], and right-click on a grass tile then select ''Nature > Forage''.
* You will have to forage many different grass patches to obtain ingredients, and it's best to move away from NT densely populated areas for this, as each grass patch can only be foraged once in any 24-hour real-life period. Hence, you need to find grass that nobody has foraged in the last 24 hours.
* Find a few berries, nuts, and herbs before moving on to stage 2 of this tutorial.
