Hi Babel,
Welcome to cow.
Its all a little strange at first.. try reading the commands.
CREATE is a fun command eg:
create a small fluffy white mouse
or create a broken lamp
you can paint thing and pose them and put them on/in this.
if your feeling adventerous try BUILD to build new locations eg:
build an old wooden shack
face it to the north
Have fun and if you have any questions, just use the questions form (top right)
