Getting started as a player

Sign in and choose a name​

  1. Choose Sign in in the app navigation. Auth0 opens the sign-in page; sign in with your existing account or use its signup option to create one.
  2. If prompted, choose your Player Name and select Enter Wits World. This is the name other players use to find you for battles and trades.
  3. Open Explore to browse campus events. Allow location access when you want to check whether you are close enough to start a challenge.

Player Names must be unique and contain 3–20 characters. Use letters, numbers, and any of this punctuation:

_ + - . ! # $ ^ ` ~ @ '

Spaces, email addresses, and phone-number formats are not allowed. Names are saved in lowercase and cannot be changed in the current app. If a name is taken or invalid, correct it and submit again. Email verification is not required for game access and does not verify a Wits institutional identity.

Claim your starter cards​

Open Cards at /collection. Choose Wit, Grit, or Spark, inspect the offered cards, and confirm your choice. You receive three Common Creatures of that affinity and the Power cards Field Kit and Reserve Focus.

You can claim a starter only once and cannot change its affinity afterwards. To use these cards in battle, create a saved deck and make it active. Claiming cards does not create or select a deck for you.

Choose what to do next​

If sign-in or account loading fails, use the page's retry control. For a forgotten password or a different sign-in account, see Account settings.
