AstroMUD is a huge multiplayer text based fantasy game also know as a Multi User Dungeon. This MUD is a virtual world described entirely in text. It combines elements of role-playing games, hack and slash, interactive fiction and online chat. Players can read descriptions of rooms, objects, other players, monsters and other non-player characters and actions performed in the virtual world. AstroMUD was created in June 1995 by Siobahn and GK and has been online ever since. Lots of new content has been added over the years by the creators, a dedicated staff of Immortals, but also by the players themselves. The whole realm is a huge world which consists of more than 20,000 rooms, 15 different classes with their own unique spells and skills, and many different races to choose from. AstroMUD has a very supportive and newbie friendly environment, active questing, custom made quests, daily quests, unique equipment, the possibility to join one of the clans, restricted player killing and multi classing. All these elements combined make AstroMUD a very addictive and very enthralling game??¦ [1]
Since 1995, AstroMUD has been a unique home to an active community of players. With 200 zones to explore there are endless possibilities for our custom Remort-Quest system and events run by players and Immortals alike. There is an automated daily questing system which yields lucrative rewards. Choose from 15 classes, 20 races and many deities which grant unique skills and abilities! Our helpful community and active Imm staff are always looking forward to greeting and helping out new players so stop in and see what AstroMUD is all about! [2]
* 151 zones 10,380 rooms* 100+ spells and 30+ skills* Clans and Special Clan items* Quest Zones and Automated quests* Color, color, color,(user color codes!)* More socials than we have seen* Extended races / multi-class system* 30 wear positions and *FREE RENT** Special Afflections (like Vampirism)* And MUCH MUCH more!

AstroMUD is a place of dreams. Silly, serious or even terrifying. You choose the path you wish to walk. Our Players are die hard addicted mudders but readily welcome New Comers.We offer a mostly original codebase as well as an 80% custom world but with the easy circle/diku interface most players easily adapt too. We offer limited pk, the first original CTF game as well as other extended functions. We have a dedicated mature staff that will not interfere with your game play. Astro Scholars have often blamed the lack of true rules in the universe for a lapse of reason, however others believe that the Universe simply needed somewhere to put the stuff it couldn't explain, but was probable. After all, haven't you head the fact that certain probabilities are merely improbable,not necessarily possible? (This also explains why one will never really win the lottery, because winning is so improbable, the only place you could ever win is on Astro, and then all you get is Astro money, which is non transferrable, and not legal tender in most parts of the universe.) And that's where we are today, beating each other up for ideology, money, and pleasure. So go forth little mortal, and welcome to AstroMUD! [4]

AstroMUD is a really nice CircleMUD-based MUD with a lot of loyal players that have been there for a long time. Many original zones, and a partially revamped codebase. Multiclassing (up to 15 distinct classes), 20 different races, and deity branding (with special powers attributed to each brand). 40 different skills, 95 different spells, and some additional spells/skills that are innate and as such not listed on the official lists (see inventory, etc.) Other bonusing available: clan tokens, tokens (and daily quests), hero and valor emblems, puzzle pieces (need to collect them all, and then combine to get nice equipment) Lots of additional social commands. Limited PKILL mud (only specific areas of the mud are PKILLable, unless you're a clan warrior). Be prepared to die to get the really nice equipment. It's not easy to get. The nicer the equipment, the more difficult it is to get. Team kills are encouraged.

I am a fairly new player on the AstroMUD and I am already addicted ;0) The players are extremely friendly and make you feel instantly at home. You can get all the help you want and it´s less complicated than I would´ve thought. You won´t regret joining the fun - with players from all over the world!

I've been playing AstroMUD for about 6 years now. It really feels like a second home to me. Its a great place where you can go, relax and have a good time. I log on at least twice a day (usually for many many hours at a time). The Imms are very active and just about all the players are friendly (very newbie friendly). I recommend this mud to anyone, from new mudders, expierenced mudders, or anyone who just wants to have a good time.
