Wurm is unusual in sandbox games in designed so that it allows you to a player can start with nothing, and create every essential and craftable item. No starter gear, no weapons, no tools, just a shirt and pants, no not even shoes even. ! Noobs start with a set of starting weapons and tools. These can be lost, or thrown out. Wurm allows that. 'It isn't easy', starting over in Wurm, 'but it is possible'.
If you:
* Died an lost an essential item
* Lost everything to raiders on a PVP server
* Threw away Dropped your noob starter gear, then died and found yourself needing basic tools againlost it* Want to try Or you just want a challenge, aka Wurm's hard modeHard Mode
then this is for you. This is not for the faint of heart, even more so than Wurm normally is. But if you like a challenge, you may find it rewarding.

It is there that you will find what you need to make your first tools.about 12 branches
