This explains it very well and its an interesting read: http://www.serversaredown.com/2012/11/why-do-i-play-wurm-online/

Below is some basic information about the game if you dont want to read that.

Wurm is a free Java based MMO. The best way to describe it is a mix between Dwarf Fortress and Minecraft. Everything is player made including houses, tools, weapons, and more. The terrain is completely deformable. You can dig trenches, flatten hills, or mine straight through mountains. Food and water is a necessity. You must forage and hunt to survive and every animal is out to kill you. The land is very unforgivable. The game is very time intensive and it does have quite the learning curve, but when you finally craft a tool or build a house it's immensely satisfying.
