Age plays an important role in two parts of Wurm:

Trees

When it comes to trees, age plays an important role in the yield of wood you will get from it. The age of a tree is: young, mature, old, very old, overaged, and shriveled. To examine the age of a tree, right-click the tile the tree is on and examine it. The age will show up in the event window.

Cutting down a young, mature, or old and shriveled tree will yield a very low amount of wood and will be a waste of a tree. The optimum time to cut down a tree is when is is old, very old, or overaged, with overaged yielding the most wood. Some overaged trees can be pruned to return them to very old status but still yield a high amount of wood. Shriveled trees are lost and will yield very low useful wood and cannot be pruned to maintain a useful age.

Age Yield Yield (Fruit tree) Sprout? Harvestable
Young 1.60, 3.20, or 4.80 kg log Wood scrap No No
Mature 11.20 kg 2.00 or 2.40 kg log When sprouting Yes
Old 106.67kg, 120kg (with sprout), 133.33kg or 146.67kg (with sprout) log 3.20 kg, 3.60 kg (with a sprout) or 4.00 kg log When sprouting Yes
Very old 160.00 kg , 173.33 kg (with sprout) 4.80 kg or 5.20 kg (with a sprout) log When sprouting Yes
Overaged 186.67 kg log 5.60 kg log No No
Shriveled 4.80 kg log Wood scrap No No


Creatures

When it comes to the ages of creatures, the ages are: young, adolescent, mature, aged, old, and venerable. Creatures take several Wurm months to reach the venerable stage. They will eventually die of old age, but most species have extremely long lifespans. One huge spider was observed alive after over six months of real time.

The following table shows a good estimate of each stage's duration, based on some research and testing for horses, but could well be applicable for all creature types.

Age Real life days Wurm weeks Wurm months
Young (foal) 3 days 4 weeks 1 months
Adolescent (foal) 10.5 days 12 weeks 3 months
Young 7 days 8 weeks 2 months
Adolescent 17.5 days 20 weeks 5 months
Mature 14 days 16 weeks 4 months
Aged 63 days 72 weeks 18 months
Old 35 days 40 weeks 10 months
Venerable 48-365 days 350-2920 weeks 80-671 months

Creature age affects its size and running speed, and older animals will have increased fighting capabilities. Aged animals have been reported to be the fastest around, especially aged huge spiders; anything younger or older will be slower than aged.
