Gamers with a high speed Internet connection may purchase an Irth Online access key to play the game online, and gamers using a dial-up connection may purchase the game either on CD-ROM (two disc set) or on a DVD (discs are not available at retail stores). Orders for Irth Online may be placed online only at www.irthonline.com which explains the ordering procedure and payment options. The Irth Online Adventure Irth Online is a huge, intriguing world populated by three distinct PvP civilizations, each competing for life-sustaining resources on the planet Irth. Players must use skill, combat prowess, strategy, commerce, cunning, and magic spells as they determine each civilization’s course of history. For non-PvP players who want a non-combative environment, Irth Online has a centrally located, “neutral” city which survives on commerce, not combat. The enormous size of Irth requires a range of transportation forms – players can walk, run, use speed boots, and can ride air ships, boats, wagon, and mounts – including teleporting with magic.
