⚡ What Is a Guest Account?

A guest account is a real adventure on the live realm — the same world, the same monsters, the same players as everyone else. It exists so you can find out whether Crystaria is your kind of game by actually playing it, not by reading about it.

Click ⚡ Play Instantly on the homepage and the realm forges you an adventurer on the spot. Name your character if you like (the name is yours to keep if you stay) or leave it blank for a wanderer's name, and choose your race and gender — all seven races are open to guests, each with its own stat leanings. Then pick a class — Fighter, Rogue, or Magician — and you're playing within seconds.

◆ What Can Guests Do?

The whole world is yours: explore the map, fight monsters, take quests, gather, craft, run dungeons, earn gold and gear. The realm's social and economic systems stay locked until you claim your account — these keep the realm safe from throwaway-account mischief, not to spoil your fun:

Guest characters also do not appear on the Top Lists (highest level, richest, top PvP, and so on) — leaderboards are for full accounts. The moment you claim, you count.

⏳ The Two Limits

✦ How to Claim Your Account

Claiming converts your guest adventure into a full account — instantly, free, forever. Here's exactly how:

✦ What claiming gives you
You keep your name, levels, gold, gear, and quest progress — everything. Every guest restriction lifts on the spot: chat, friends, mail, parties, Find Group, guilds, Recruit a Friend, auction listings and PvP all unlock, the Level 25 cap disappears, your 7-day timer is gone for good, and your character starts counting on the Top Lists.

◆ Common Questions

Is my chosen name reserved? Yes — from the moment your guest adventure begins, the name is yours. Claim within 7 days and it's yours permanently.

Can I change my name when I claim? No — the name you start with is the name you keep, so choose one you'll be proud of. (Leave the field blank and you'll get a wanderer's name instead.)

What happens if I don't claim in time? The character and everything it carried is removed from the realm, and the name becomes available again. There's no way to recover an expired guest — but starting fresh takes one click.

Can I start more than one guest adventure? A few per day, yes — but guest accounts are for trying the game, not stockpiling. If you're enjoying yourself, claim the one you love.

I claimed — now what? Log in from then on with your character name and the password you set. Everything a full account can do is open to you, all the way to the Underworld at Level 1,000.
