Let me start off by saying I hate wall paper. The woman that lived in the house I now live in must have owned stock in wall paper companies, had a love for wall pape... See more
it comes off the same as with any other wall HOWEVER, you must be careful with scraping the wallpaper off. Any nick in the surface will need smoothing once you are done
Score w/ a wallpaper scoring tool and I love DIF paper remover. Mix what you'll use in about 15 minutes at a time and put it in a yard pump sprayer. The key is to use HOT water with the DIF. Spritz and leave in place for the instructed time and scrape off with a wide scraper. And repeat a zillion times lol!
After the paper is off, if you have lots of glue on the walls spritz w/ DIF again and sponge off. Finally, wash down the walls until clean.
They do make a wall paper remover that is very easy or you can use warm water in a spritz pottle to gently wet the paper don't saturate be patient let sit at least 5 minutes and remove just be gentle with scrapping.

Best Way to Remove Wallpaper
To be honest I’d be apprehensive about plaster and water based wallpaper remover.
steam it and scrape.
If the wallpaper is well-adhered to the walls (or at least mostly), it can be much less hassle to just cover it. It's a little bit of a multi-step process, but the results will be much nicer without having to replaster your walls after struggling to remove paper.
Thank you all for your help/answers
