BlackMUD

A fantasy game world of magnificent proportions unfolds before you: it is the heavy sea-town air of Mercinae, the sound of waves crashing against Parrius, great dark spires piercing the sky of Thakria. This roleplaying world, which existed before the Internet and was the first online RPG game ever, thrives because of its unique world. Great sorcerers, war that can tumble years of real life history in a day, magic that can see beyond time, rituals and vast events that raise mortals to become gods! Avalon's scope is nearly infinite and anything within its walls is possible. As a text-based RPG, it will exceed all expectations: adventurers, merchants, politicians, fighters, forest-loving druids, all cohabitate in this rich, vibrant and brutal world. Avalon is an online RPG game that has always been ahead of its time. It innovates in the most remarkable ways, inventing new mechanics that you will not see anywhere else for years. Above all else, Avalon is a fair meritocracy. You may quicken your pace but you cannot achieve excellence without deserving it and excellence in any area takes time. It is an environment unlike any other, where players decide the course of history. Find any online roleplaying game today that can match Zaphod of Avalon, who 25 years ago and still sometimes today, will be in Meeting Place sharpening his axe and preparing for battle. Players today do the same as he, building on an epic saga to write their own names into this legendary world.

The Harshlands MUD is, above all else, a role-playing game world. The game should be viewed in most ways as a traditional sit-down, pencil and paper, role-playing game, and not as a video game where the object is to tally the most kills.

The Cleft of Dimensions is a text adventure MMO (aka, a MUD) with content inspired by classic video games. Do you want to jump on goombas? Maybe you'd rather immolate them with lava or bombard them with meteors. You could always confuse them into hitting themselves. Then again, why fight goombas when you could enslave them into your army? If that doesn't work out, you've got this motorcycle you could crash into them. The Cleft has 16 character classes, each with a different play style. Gameplay in the Cleft is as much about exploring as it is about killing things. Secret treasure is hidden everywhere, waiting to be claimed by those willing to endeavour. Quests are prominent, with activities ranging from committing industrial espionage for a paranoid innkeeper to seeking the blessings of the mana spirits. To top it all off, we have an active roleplaying community to make your own story part of the Cleft.

Aabahran is a multi-user dungeon, or MUD. A MUD is a multi-player computer game that combines elements of role-playing games, hack and slash style computer games and social chat rooms. MUDs are text-driven, where players read descriptions of rooms, objects, events, other characters, and computer-controlled creatures or non-player characters (NPCs) in a virtual world. Aabahran has been in existence since June of 2000, ranking it in line with many of the long-standing MUDs still in existence. Its world is rich, dynamic and exciting. It is also a roleplaying-enforced, playerkilling MUD. What this means is that in Aabahran, you are required to play a character to its full extent. Additionally, you may kill other players (after a certain rank and within our highly balanced playerkilling ranges). In fact, because Aabahran has a balanced rare & unique item system, you may need to kill other players in order to get that special sword or shield you’ve been looking for! The world is massive, with over 10,000 unique rooms for you to explore. Because of the variety of races and classes, the game remains fresh and exciting, and endlessly replayable.
