Well everyone, If you like Test based games, give RetroMUD a shot. It's telnet based, and allows you to interact with dozens of other players in a persistent game world. Oh, and vulpins are available as a race. Heh. Dragons, too. And Raccoons (Arakun).<br><br><a href='http://www.retromud.org' target='_blank'>http://www.retromud.org</a><br><br>Give it a look, you may like it.<br><br>I'm usually wasting my time on there as Nyss, the Vulpin Biomancer.

MUD means Multi-User Dungeon. MUCK means Multi-User Character Kingdom.<br><br>MUDs and MUCKs are text-based adventure games, similar in nature to Dungeons & Dragons and other role-playing games. The main difference is that MUDs center around combat and character level progression, much like Final Fantasy. MUCKs are just role-playing, similar to Furcadia.
