From sign-up to your first adventure

1. Step 1

   Create your account

   Register a free account on this panel. You use the same username and password to log in to the game.

   Register
2. Step 2

   Download the game client

   Choose the Full Client (the complete game) or the Mini Client (a smaller download that must be patched to PW 1.6.2). Pick whichever mirror is fastest for you.

   Open downloads
3. Step 3

   Install and patch

   Install or extract the client to a folder with enough free space, preferably outside Program Files. If you downloaded the Mini Client, run the patcher until it reaches version 1.6.2. If your antivirus blocks a game file, add the game folder to its exceptions.
