How to Play RuneScape

Playing Runescape can be addicting and fun at the same time. Killing dragons, creating your own house, and casting magical spells at other people are some of the things that you can do in the game with a membership.
  1. Go to the website's page, Runescape.com. Click on "Create a Free Account", if you are new. Please read the create a Runescape username article for ideas of usernames that you can use in the game.
    • Avoid becoming a paying member unless you are sure that it is going to be worth it, or if you are working on a secondary account for a specific skill. It takes time in gaining levels, so it's advisable to wait until your character has good stats.
  2. Click on the "Play Runescape (Existing User) button after you have created your account. You will have the choice of high or low detail, and you may also select the Java type you want for the game.
  3. Choose a world that you want to play in. The screen is color coded by members and free worlds, tells you how many players are in each world, what activity is currently ongoing in that specific world, and what country the world server is in.
