How to start

1. Create an account. Create one here; an email is required. The same name and password log you into the game and this site, on both worlds.

2. Confirm your email. Click the link we send when you register. You can play before you do; the Market's Exchange PIN needs a confirmed email.

3. Pick a world. On the Play page, choose Main, the 2004 game as it was, with player killing in the Wilderness only, or PvP, where you keep what you kill and can fight anyone within 25 combat levels. Your levels, items and bank are separate in each world; your dollar balance is the same in both. The game runs in your browser, and the Play page can also open it full screen.

4. Your first steps. A new character starts on Tutorial Island. On the PvP world the island is safe until you finish it; after that, other players can attack you anywhere outside the safe places, and what you drop goes to your killer. Read the PvP world's rules before you leave the island there.

5. The Market. The Exchange clerk stands in Varrock West Bank on both worlds: click Exchange on him. You type your 4-digit Exchange PIN once each login; three wrong PINs lock it for 15 minutes. How the Market works.

6. Money. To put dollars in, send USDT (BEP-20) to your own deposit address on your account page; it counts after 15 confirmations. USDT sent on any other network than BNB Smart Chain is lost. How money works.

7. More than one account. You can play several accounts at once, and trade between your own accounts as you wish.
