Players create a [[PlayerCharacter character]] simply by giving it a name and a gender, there are no stats or starting classes. They use text commands to explore The Land, solving puzzles, fighting [[PlayerVersusPlayer other players]] or [[NonPlayerCharacter NPCs]], and gathering {{Plunder}}. Defeating enemies or dropping their loot in a place called the Swamp will [[ScoringPoints score points]], which will raise their CharacterLevel. Scoring points and making level is the whole point of the game; there is no larger plot. The objective is to reach the highest level, Wiz (Wizard for males and Witch for females). Wiz is GodMode, and began as a debug feature before Bartle thought it would be great to make it the game's goal.
