Medievia is proud to announce the release of it’s new custom client with MudMaster 2k6. It is now easier than ever to connect to Medievia in just a few simple steps. Not only that, but this version of MudMaster was specifically made for Medievia with the custom Medievia font installed and other features specific to the game.

Check it out at

Has it been awhile since you heard of or visited Medievia?

Now’s the time to take another look…

"This game will shock the world. How can an interactive text game shock the world? We opened in 1991 and never stopped adding things. Today, 17 years later, we are six to ten months away from finishing the most in-depth multi-player game world ever contemplated. This is a Google-sized jump in game features and potential never before seen.

"You can build your own house, have your own pet to train, try to become a hero, even have kids and make your own bloodline. You may become a pirate, be a trader, or even be elected Governor. The citizens in the game speak of your deeds, and the dragons you fly know you and speak to you. You can hire workers and start your own business and expand your town's land. The workers run your business 24/7, even as you may be offline. The goods you produce become part of the economy as players trade in a real supply and demand environment. You will do many things as a player here in Medievia, you may even be the one to save the world during war and forever become part of Medievia lore.

"The power of a text game has never fully been explored. While other multiplayer worlds are designing for more frames per second, we are designing for more things to do and new ways for people to play together. While other expensive games must purge their playerbase and force everyone to start over so they can cash in on the next big buck, the free Medievia game world has been getting more real and more feature-rich for nearly two decades.

"Do you Dare Enter? Do you want to make some new friends right now? I promise you an experience that will last a lifetime."

-Vryce, father of Medievia.

So, as always I must ask:

Do you DARE Enter?

- It installed on Vista 64-bit, but with some funniness - Vista thought the setup hadn't worked even though it seems to have worked ok.

- You should probably put a screenshot on the download page so people have an idea what they're downloading. You should also list the size of the download (900K-ish) next to the download.

- If you're targeting new players (as opposed to existing MUD players), then you should make the UI look less scary. I can go into detail if you want. (I posted some comments about the batmud client a few months back that are somewhat relevent.)

Have you had any other feedback from Mac users? Crashing apps, freezing clients?

Unfortunately the client is for windows only

I'm a mac user myself and would love a Medievia custom client for me. I use MudWalker and it works fine enough, although the Med font doesn't work either. Our next step is to get a mac version of our client - hopefully soon!
