Eressea is a fantastic world. Creatures such as elves and dwarves populate the world, and magic is a daily occurrence. Even dragons have been sighted, large, powerful and above all dangerous monsters that require hundreds of soldiers to fight, as well as sea serpents, ents and other strange creatures.

Eressea is a large world. Hundreds of peoples live on the islands of Eressea, and many of them will probably never meet, as it can take years to bridge the distances.

Eressea is a complex world. Leading a nation is no easy task. There is a lot to consider to ensure that everything runs smoothly, and the neighbours are also involved. Agreements have to be made, there may be quarrels, even war. And even if everything goes well, Eressea takes up a lot of time. Whilst you barely need an hour a week at the beginning, this can later increase to ten or more hours a week.

There is no clear game objective in Eressea, no end that needs to be reached. Each player sets their own "milestones" that they want to achieve, be it building a trading empire, conquering an entire island, exploring as many regions as possible or whatever.

In Eressea, each player takes charge of a faction of people of a certain race, which they can choose when registering. Players are then dropped into the world of Eressea with a few others and can begin to explore the surrounding area and more from there.
