Our World of Text began as an identical copy of YWOT without rate limits, which Andrew created as a playground for scripters. OWOT was later rebooted in 2017 by members of the YWOT community. | |||
As an older website, YWOT lacks many features such as colors, teleportation, and a built in chat. The absence of teleportation is especially important in that it forces users to explore the canvas manually. The end result is a sprawling open world filled with content, most notably along roads and trails that spawn entire communities with their own cultures and landmarks. | As an older website, YWOT lacks many features such as colors, teleportation, and a built in chat.
