Before and after shots

wurm landscape2 What is Wurm online?

Wurm Online is a true sandbox MMO. It encompasses many of the ideas I would like to see in an MMO. It is made by a small independant developer with a lot of good solid ideas. I like how anything I wave my mouse cursor over the engine recognizes it and tells me what it is. You can also see for miles and miles in their world which really adds a strange feeling of depth to their atmosphere. I really liked how the developers choose to focus more on gameplay rather then worry about fancy graphics.
