Medievia IV has one of the largest virtual worlds I know of, with over 4,000,000 rooms! One of the really neat features of Medievia is real Ansi overhead Ultima-style mapping in the wilderness.

  • type 'help formation'
  • type 'help mounting', flying, dragons etc...try and get a feel for the capabilities of the system.

  The acronym MUD stands for Multi-User Dungeon. There are thousands of MUD games on the Internet nowadays, but MUD2 is unique: it is the direct descendant of the original MUD, as developed by Roy Trubshaw, Richard Bartle, and others at Essex University in and around 1978.

  MUD2 is a game of exploration and discovery; of friendship and treachery; of fighting and death. Its unofficial motto:

  You haven't lived until you've died in MUD2!

• TinyTim [Website] [Update listing]
  Other Categories: Funny worlds
  

  TinyTIM is a really big thing, like the Postal Service or Premarital Sex. And the Clock on the Wall is the single most complicated Thing on TinyTIM. Really. Completely. People have been known to have conversations with it. People ask it questions they wouldn't ask their best friend or closest lover. It has been known to send people screaming off the game. It's been parodied and paid homage to on other MUSHes.

  TinyTIM was started as a prank on an MIT computer in 1990, and through the help and insanity of dozens of people, has grown into one of the largest free- standing structures on the Internet. TinyTIM is addictive. It's fun. It's wacky. It's running on a Sparcstation that's painted like a cow.

• YibMOO [Update listing]
  Other Categories: Social worlds
  

  YibMOO takes place inside and on the grounds of another large sprawling mansion, the vacation house of the fabulously wealthy and famously eccentric founder of YibCo, Inc. Somewhat unlike a certain other mansion, from which it draws some of its inspiration, this house is still (and perpetually) under construction. The owner's instructions to the contracting company were simply, "Surprise me. And make me laugh." Many builders have taken the opportunity to add to the mansion, extending it in dozens of different directions, each with a completely different vision and architectural style. The secret passageway system is rumored to be one of the finest in the world.
  ...
  Unbenownst to the world at large, the secret YibCo Research and Development facility lies beneath this very house, where a legion of inventors and crackpot scientists cook up their zany prototypes in a labyrinth of tunnels, laboratories and underground testing hangars -- strange sounds, smells, and wisps of brightly-colored smoke occasionally drift up to the main part of the house from these nether regions. The house, of course, is lavishly equipped with all of the latest YibCo prototypes.

  Arctic is a multi-player fantasy role-playing game loosely based on TSR's Dragonlance novels. The base code for the game was gamma DikuMUD but it's been extensively modified over the course of three years to provide a unique balance of realism and playability.

  Arctic is geared towards a mature game-playing audience. There is an emphasis on role-playing, and character interactions are handled in a realistic manner. This means there is sometimes competition and disputes between characters, and these disputes will sometimes end in violence. Player-characters stealing from and killing other player-characters is not necessarily encouraged, but it is allowed.

• Armageddon MUD [Website] [Update listing]
  Other Categories: Fantasy Role-playing Worlds
  

  Armageddon MUD is a Diku Mud in which players jointly inhabit a harsh desert and completely textual world. The game requires roleplay; while conflict abounds, play is not about killing things. Rather, play is about living out a character's sometimes short and always difficult life in a world where magick exists and is feared by most of the population, as well as outlawed in some areas. Sorcerer-kings and their ruthless servants, the Templarate, govern the two main cities, Allanak and Tuluk. Life is a constant struggle, and death occurs over a drink of precious water.

  The World of Darkness is very similar to our own. Same cities, same movies, same events all exist there, just as they do in the real world. However, there are many differences. Corruption is rampant, apathy and ignorance have taken the general populace and the Supernatural walk the earth, hiding themselves just beyond the perception of the mundane. The creatures have been influencing the course of the world since the beginning, all the while waging an eternal war between themselves. Few have realized the source of the dacay and darkness that surrounds them.

• Darke [Website] [Update listing]
  Other Categories: Swords and Sorcery worlds
  

  A dark fantasy game with many entertaining complexities. It is centered around and chiefly governed by the players, rather than the administrators. This opens the door to many interesting player/player interactions as well as a healthy dose of violence.

  Darke is intended for advanced players. If you have limited or no mudding experience, you can expect to die relatively often. Darke is combat-oriented, and very difficult. Because of the difficulty level, the penalties of death are not very severe.

   
• Darker Realms [Website] [Update listing]
  Other Categories: Swords and Sorcery worlds
  

  Darker Realms is quite possibly the oldest LP-style mud in the USA. Started in early 1990, DR has never been down for more than a weekend and still features most of the original cast of gods and coders. Although a number of guilds have cropped up, DR is still based on the traditional LP mudlib. Ergo, it lends a classic feel to what we believe is a classic game. There are about 1500 active players (cleaned monthly), but rarely more than 25 or so on at a time, (and most of us are playing various card games (spades, yahtzee, poker, bridge)). DR recently moved to a much faster machine, so it probably *isn't* the slowest LP-style world in existance anymore :)

  From the outset, DartMud was designed to be a world for hard core players. It is complex and brutal. It was never designed to be unfair, but those seeking an utopia might be better off looking elsewhere. Some of the players claim it is more addictive than most drugs.

  DartMud features many complex features such as real wilderness, weather, permanent items, real money, real death, diseases, etc. 5 years in development, DartMud is a complex world to explore.

  Discworld is based on the Discworld books as written by Terry Pratchett. The current city of Ankh-Morpork closely follows the design of the city as set out in the Maps of Ankh-Morpork. When you log onto Discworld please do not choose a name of a character from these books. (Terry Pratchett's Discworld books aren't traditional fantasy (no hobbits, orcs, or drow here), but they contain many of the elements of fantasy while generally being very funny and well worth the read.)

• DragonMUD [Website] [Update listing]
  Other Categories: Fantasy Role-playing Worlds, Social Role-playing worlds
  

  DragonMud is an early 1800's walled city known as TinyLondon. Perpetually pre-industrial and heavily sprinkled with magic, TinyLondon is a city of cobblestones, carriages, gaslamps, stone bridges and ancient towers. The colorful populace is made up of pirates, infiltrators, thieves, vampires, wizards, questors, merchants, poets, gypsies, ambassadors from other realms, Grand Dames and new immigrants.

  DragonMud is the oldest TinyMud style MU* in existence, (predating Islandia by a few months) and has been continuously online since Thanksgiving of 1989.

  Unlike many other MU*s, "role-playing" and "secondary" characters are rare on DragonMud. We find it more interesting talking to real people rather than fabricated personalities. Citizens receive visible recognition in the form of status and ranks, as well as additional capabilities based on Quests completed, personal accomplishments, popularity, knowledge of the realm and the intricacies of the mud itself.

  DragonMud is not a hack-n-slash, rape-kill-n-plunder environment. A certain level of manners and civility is expected of all citizens.

  The creation and maintenance of DragonMud is focused on a commitment to user's privacy and autonomy. Patience, tolerance, fairness, understanding, wit, charm, style, curiosity and creativity are values most prized by the citizens of DragonMud.

• FurAnime [Website] [Update listing]
  Other Categories: For Adults Only
  

  FurAnime MUCK is a safe place for Anime Characters to explore their sexuality. A place where they do not need to be concerned with other players being under age. Where it is safe to be a furry, or have a sexually explicit description in public rooms. It hopes to do this by being 100% Anime chars transformed into Furs, 100% adult, and providing a safe environment for as many forms of play as possible. Playspace... Most of the world of FurAnime is considered a public playspace, with safeword respected, with public scenes and play, with collars worn with pride. A place you can take someone out on a leash, and not be ridiculed. 100% Adult... The Muck asks if you are over eighteen years of age before allowing you into the IC area. It is not because we have a dislike for youngsters, but it is to protect them, and the people of the muck. We feel that, at least for here, people ought not have to worry about moral and legal concerns about who might be on the other end of the line. 100% Anime... FurAnime MUCK is for anime characters only. Anime characters transformed into Furries that is. A rather unique twist, we think, on most anime and furry mucks. The only exception to this, by popular request, is that we also permit Harry Potter characters.

Now imagine that multinational corporations are the only organizations cuthroat enough to have come out of the collapse of civilization with any real collective power, and that there are now no restrictions on them using that power however they like. There are so many ways to die here, and thanks to the corp's technology, you can keep coming back and experience each and every one of them. Not even suicide can get you out of hell.

A story of a technological, yet magical furry society holding tight to the old traditions of monarchy and knighthood, versus the sudden arrival of friends and relatives turned into brainwashed cyborgs alongside robotic brethren. It's a tale of blood versus metal, of magic versus technology.

   
• Kingdoms [Website] [Update listing]
  Other Categories: Fantasy Role-playing Worlds, Swords and Sorcery worlds
  

  Kingdoms is one of the oldest LPmuds running today (it has been around for over 4 years). It is quite large, and is continually expanding, due to the large number of active coding wizards. Many features which are now standard on most LPmuds have been developed on Kingdoms, and there are several unique features developed specifically for Kingdoms. The royalty system, whereby a player can become King, Queen, Duke, Duchess, etc. of certain regions in the world, and the guilds, which are more like professions than character classes. You start out professionless, and you don't have to choose a guild until level 5 (you can even choose to continue being professionless). Kingdoms is a fairly newbie-friendly world; playerkilling is only allowed above level 5 and under a strict set of rules, and there is also a special newbie-helping NPC, who gives you good advice and protects you from dangers.

  Kingdoms is a challenging world also for experienced players, with a lot of focus on role-playing, quests, and exploring, as well as the usual hack-and-slash of battle worlds. The areas are well coded, with emphasis on detailed descriptions and tricky problems to solve. All in all, a very comprehensive LPmud.

It's a world filled with pop culture, some of it faithfully transposed, and much of it faithfully ridiculed.

• Metropolis Universalis [Website] [Update listing]
  Other Categories: Anime worlds, Role-playing Science Fiction worlds
  

  In the year 2000, the Japanese government ran, and failed, a project similar to the Philadelphia Experiment. As a result, a massive burst of energy swept through the test site and spread through the surrounding area like a shockwave, rippling through space and time and leaving buildings and peoples from other times and places in it's wake.

  The shockwave created by the experiment was the biggest rip in space and time but it wasn't the only one. Anomalies called portals appeared at random, spitting out various peoples and objects from what scientists soon discovered were popular anime, manga, and movies of the day. To hide their guilt, the Japanese government called these anomalies 'naturally occurring phenomenon' and covered up any and all signs of their experiment, concentrating the people's attention on revitalizing their city instead.

  Thus Metropolis was born. A thriving mega-city blending the old-world town with the new-world tech where your neighbor could be a maniacal wizard or princess from another world and the stranger on the street could be part of the undead. Anything can happen in this city gone haywire and usually, anything does.

The system for magic (the one power) is powerful and there are weapon forms and skills for all. It is a classless system where you learn from teachers, and roleplay is encouraged above all else. There is a large array of guilds for the many players from The Children of the Light and The Aes Sedai to special guilds like The Forsaken or The Ogier. Between 40-100 players, at different times, usually log on to explore the ever widening map, from Fal Moran in Sheinar to Emond's Field in Two River (Andor). This mud has the distinction of having official permission from Robert Jordan to use the names and places from the books.

The center of the town is Town Square (#62) which is surrounded by the old Bijou Theatre and the Opera House; there is a Ballpark, and hopefully many more ideas that are a part of the era. We hope that it will become more than just America during the 1950's and 1960's.

  From the home page: "TrippyMUSH has no theme. You can play Godzilla, if you like. You can play Lucille Ball, you can play Squidgy the Talking Pencil. You can be all that you can be, without the morning hikes. So what do we do there? Well, you see, these l'il cute games have their own similarities to Real Life, just like Real Life does. Things get weird. Politics sprout, drama ensues, relationships happen, arbitrators pull their hair out, and small virtual kittens pee in your shoes. Just like life! Oh, I seem to have gone and lost my point again. I think I was trying to say that TrippyMUSH is just like all the other games out there, but we're a good deal more relaxed. We're gold-filtered apathy in with a general who-cares attitude, sprinkled with laziness, and frothed to a fine bizarre head."

  Here people from around the world meet 24 hours a day, make friends, and form their own little communities. The landscape of Ugly is made of places that vary from the fantastic and enchanting, to the downright surreal and confusing. Ugly is not one specific game that can be described, rather it is a collection of the creative output of its players so it is constantly evolving.

  We have a policy of open evolution at UglyMUG, meaning that the place is what you make it. Players have many ways available to help in our evolution, this ranges from being an active member of our communities, performing social roles such as being a Welcomer, to creating unique objects, rooms and commands as a Builder.

  If you have a suggestion about UglyMUG then please email it to: suggestions@uglymug.org.uk

  What ultimately would happen should a new breed of homo-sapien evolve? Homo Superior: Beings with the great power to make or destroy the world, to heal or cause disease, to serve or control. Would mankind see them as gods? Equals? Or something far, far worse?

  This future is set, the cards have already been played, the battles fought and only perspective may tell whether they were won or lost. Welcome to Fort Blackfoot, Montana, a mutant containment facility situated in the middle of no-where, protecting the world from the farther ravishes of the mutant plague.

• Valhalla [Website] [Update listing]
  Other Categories: Swords and Sorcery worlds
  

  Valhalla includes some interesting twists on the standard hack-and-slay world, and I don't just mean vikings. In fact, there are 11 races in Valhalla (with 4 more under development). Bribes are accepted for power items. (Not enough money? That's okay. Buy a lottery ticket.) If you want to serve and protect, you can go to police school and gain special skills and spells. All clothing in the world is made for a specific size. Items can be resized at special shops or with spells and skills.

  One of the neat things in Valhalla is the interactive Tag game. Players are randomly telported around the mud and must find thier target and 'tag' them. Another is living, talking mobs. (Watch out, that player your chatting with just might be a mob.) There are even rooms and objects with 'personalities.'

  VirtuaGor is an implementation of John Norman's world of Gor. Gor is a harsh world, and is technologically backwards. There are no elves, no dragons, no magic and there is precious little technology. On VirtuaGor, people can walk the land, sail the Thassa and portray Masters, Mistresses, Jarls, Ladies, Braves, squaws, kajiras, kajiri, bondmaids and thralls of Gor. Minors and people who are easily offended should turn around and go somewhere else. This is Gor. Gor is harsh. Gor is unfair. Gor is Gor. Ta-Sardar Gor!

   
• Virtual Chicago [Website] [Update listing]

  VirtualChicago is a virtual world that tried its hardest to mirror Chicago - at least structure-wise. But it is more than that; it is a place where friends can meet and talk. It is a place where people can explore, or create something for others to explore. It is a community that goes past any other place you can find.

  VirtualChicago is a MUSE (Multi-User Simulated Environment). By travelling to the Community Center (or teleporting by typing '@tel #50'), you can meet many interesting people.

  For a fleeting moment all is silent before Lif, the Great Mother, stirs. Her robes rustle briefly and then there is quiet once more, but now it is the quiet of anticipation. The air charged with a sense of urgency, as if some momentous event is about to occur.
  
  "Come forth." The Great Mother whispers, "Come forth."

= Cool worlds, = Pueblo-enhanced worlds, = Adult worlds, = Using IP address

Worlds listed by IP address may become inaccessible, even though the world itself still exists. This is because the IP address is directly related to the machine the world is running on, and worlds occasionally move to different machines. In that case, their IP address will change, but their hostname will be updated to the new address within a day at the most. This is why we've flagged worlds listed by their IP address - we'd really like to get a hostname for these, if one exists. If you know the world's hostname (and better yet, its website), please click Update Listing next to the world and let us know!
