What is VargonMUD? Most often referred to as VMUD, it is a real-time role playing game. VMUD belongs to that class of games known as MUDs, or Multi-User Dungeons / Dimensions / Domains (take your pick). It is a text-based game allowing multiple users to interact with each other all at the same time as they kill creatures to gain experience, solve quests, or just socialize. VMUD has a very strong social emphasis and a very odd mix of humor. If you've never played a MUD before, it's definitely a great place to start. If you've played MUDs before, you haven't really experienced life until you've played VargonMUD. So, please, click here if you'd like to play.
Note: You must have a properly configured telnet helper application to play VargonMUD. If you are using a Windows-based PC, a good telnet application to use is CRT, which you can find at winfiles.com. If you are using a MacOS-based PC, you can get the (FREE!) NCSA Telnet.
Now, for all of you people who care, here are some VMUD statistics. VargonMUD runs on the MudOS driver, version 0.9.20 and originally had a Nightmare 3.1 code-base, but it's been modified beyond all recognition. VargonMUD is very colorful (provided your telnet application supports ANSI -- otherwise, only the language is colorful) and every command supports the use of partial names. For instance, if you wanted to "tell theguywiththereallylongname hello" you could just type "t theg hello". There's other nice things like that that really aid in making the game social and fun.
VargonMUD is a really fun, great place, but don't take my word for it. Here's what some of our players have had to say:
"VargonMUD is a really fun, great place."
-Guest
"Damn it. It still doesn't work!"
-Tester
"Some of the finest sheep around. If you're not getting any on the farm, you will on VMUD."
-Pwyll
"Hey! Stop f@#%ing with me!"
-Guest
"This place rocks!"
-Anonymous Mudder who just wizzed
"This place sucks!"
-Anonymous Player, killed by Mom
But you should really play it and judge for yourself. However, VargonMUD is not a family-oriented game and there are no measures taken to avoid offending anyone. In fact, quite the opposite may be true. If this disturbs you, don't play.
