Runescape began as an idea in 1998 by Paul and Andrew Gower. In 2001 the game was run by Jagex Ltd.

Guthix, Sarodomin and Zamorak were the real founders, but only book pages have been found telling of their existence and no one believes anymore.

what inspired Jagex to make Runescape was Andrew (before forming the "Jagex Company") they created a game called DeviousMUD, the forerunner to RuneScape.

The game, which was never publicly released, used isometric graphics. In 1999, Gower completely rewrote the game, albeit with no improvements to the graphics or several other aspects of the game. This version was released as a public beta version for approximately one week before it was withdrawn.

As a Cambridge University undergraduate, Gower worked on a complete rewrite of the game with the assistance of his brother, Paul Gower. The isometric view was replaced by a mixture of both 3D and 2D sprites. The game, renamed RuneScape, was released to the general public as a beta version and for testing on 4 January 2001 and was originally operated from their parents' house in Nottingham. In December 2001, the Gower brothers and Constant Tedder formed Jagex to take over the business aspects of running RuneScape. By that time, there were over one million registered accounts.

The game RuneScape was created by Andrew Gower. It first began development in 1998, when Gower developed a game called DeviousMUD. DeviousMUD was never released to the public. In 1999, the game was completely rewritten by Gower, and released as a public beta for around a week, before being withdrawn.

Later, Andrew Gower developed a complete rewrite of the game with his brother, Paul Gower; this game, called RuneScape, was released in early 2001 as a public beta. This version of the game is now known as RuneScape Classic. The game was originally operated from Gower's parents' house in England; in December of 2001, the Gower brothers and Constant Tedder formed the company Jagex, to manage the business aspects of the game.

As the game became more popular, more major changes were planned. The game engine was rewritten completely, with significant improvements to the graphics and other aspects of the game. This version of RuneScape is known as RuneScape 2, and is the current version of RuneScape commonly played today (though the game engine has received significant updates since). A beta version of RuneScape 2 was released in December of 2003, for RuneScape members; the completed version, called RuneScape, was released in March of 2004. The previous version was renamed RuneScape Classic, and was kept online (but with restrictions on who can play it).

You simply log into the official RuneScape site - www.runescape.com. When you choose the option to play, the latest version will automatically be fetched in your browser. Any claim of a newer version is not authorized by Jagex (the company that made RuneScape) and probably a scam (to steal your RuneScape password and thus your account or items in your account).
