How is this different than a MUD?
Does anyone remember the MUD [1] days ?It was a terminal text based D&D where you could connect to a server and create a character and play with other people. Every mud service was a completely different world you could explore and had different characters. You would team up with people and go slay monsters to gain experience and level up or just hang out and do stupid stuff.You could use a dedicated mud clients like zMud [2] that added some nice key mapping for going north/south
