Review
zMUD is the most popular and useful MUD client that has been made. When the Internet started, the graphical powers of the computers didn't offer much graphical expression. But the Internet was already there, so the obvious thing started to happen, Multi-User Dungeons were created. MUD is the grandfather of modern MMORPGs like World of Warcraft, but the difference is that they were all text-based. You read the description of the "rooms" and what was happening, and wrote text commands to make your character do something. They became quite popular, and still are - however, as the MUD complexity grew, a Telnet client wasn't good enough to play them. Thus came zMUD, a program specifically designed to play MUDs. This client has all the features you may want: multiple windows, aliases, triggers, auto-mapping, spell checking, well it has everything you might want. It does make playing MUDs more entertaining. Even with its price tag of $34.95 it is still a worthy purchase, if you still play MUDs. The only downside is that the client does not support Vista. |
