MUD Coding

Prufrock · 01-06-2004, 02:19 PM

Is it possible to run a MUD on my computer and play it by myself? If so, where can i download it? I've tried the rogue-like games, but i prefer the feel of a MUD more. I'm using Windows95. I don't know a lot about the coding behind MUDs so any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

I think I mentioned this before, but what they ####, I enjoy it. Depending on the type of game you are playing it could be considered a SUX.

If you are looking for just the feel of a MUD but designed as a single player game I would suggest you google for interactive fiction. There are quite a few really enjoyable games out there ( if you look hard enough you might find a couple of mine) and , much like any other type of game, there are quite a few not so good ones.

Hi Prufrok,

Do you mean that you just want to play something like a text-based adventure game? Or you actually want a MUD that you can set up to build and play on your own?

Personally, I'd suggest the text-based adventure game as it's more set up to be single player, and often has more appropriate story lines than most MUD's that often have unfinished areas/items/quests and rely on RP or quests to make stories.

Like Tavish said, I'd try a google search.

Some games that I know of from the top of my head are:
WandMaster, Virtua, Titanic, & Stellar Agent.

(I don't vouch that these games are good, I just know of them and it might help your searching.)
