# 1. Set Up MetaMask

To play Outpost Surge fully, you will need to use MetaMask, a popular browser-based wallet that allows you to interact with various EVM-compatible blockchains. Follow these steps to set up your MetaMask account:

1. Visit the [MetaMask website](https://metamask.io/) and download the browser extension for your preferred browser (Chrome, Firefox, Edge, or Brave).
2. After installing the extension, click on the MetaMask icon in your browser toolbar to open the wallet.
3. Create a new account by following the on-screen instructions. Be sure to save your secret recovery phrase and password in a safe and secure location.
4. Once your account is set up, you can switch between different EVM-compatible blockchains by clicking on the network dropdown menu at the top of the MetaMask window and selecting the desired blockchain.
