Notes
The Crash Site is an area of the surface.
Waking in a New World is the only level of the Crash Site. After knight creation, the player must venture away from their crash pod. Various tips and obstacles teach the player the basics of gameplay, including controls and methods of exploration.
This part of the game is not multiplayer and players will not be put in parties.
If health reaches 0 in this level, the knight will be revived after a few seconds.
If this is the first time Spiral Knights has been run on the player's computer, the rest of the game will download after the completion of this level. The level is considered "complete" when the player enters the Rescue Camp.
