Game Won't Launch at All

  1. Check your graphics card. Is it an Intel HD3000? Unfortunately that card does not support OpenGL 3.2, which is a requirement for Wildermyth at this time.
  2. Check the logs. Were they created? If not, please contact us.
  3. Are you on Mac? You need Java 8 or later to run Wildermyth.
  4. Are you on Windows? Where are you running the game from? You must extract the zip file to a location on your computer, and please don't put it inside of the Program Files folder, because that creates security issues that we're not ready for.

If none of this helps, please ask for help on discord, or contact wildermyth at gmail.
