The following review is the opinion of the review's author [Zaph] and in no way represents the opinions of this website or its staff.

This MUD is not worth the trouble. The people are unfriendly, the
syntaxes are confusing. The helpfiles do not cover even the basics and
the whole newbie academy thing is time consuming, incomplete and
frustrating. The average number of players circles around 10 and these
jovial folk seem to make a sport of giving newbies bad instructions
and mocking their questions.

The overall user interface, while supporting ansi in spammy and
filled with irrelevant 'fireballs' usually conveying something or
the other in poor taste. I would recommend any other mud over this
piece of excrement. Out of five stars, i would give this sorry excuse
of a MUD none.

(The following review comment is the opinion of the comment's author [Con] and in no way represents the opinions of this website or its staff).

I've been playing this mud on and off, it was my first mud, and i
played it religiously for 8 years or more at one point. It's a very
widespread world, complete with an amazing set of coders and builders
all working to make the experience more fun. The pvp system is a lot
of fun as well, allowing you to choose your battles to settle
differences as well as hunt a fellow pvper if you choose.

The mud has evolved tremendously since its beginning and continues to
grow as new books in the DUNE series come out and new content is made
available for play in the mud.

The text is not spammy at all as the last comment has said. He just
hasn't had the pleasure of knowing the help command and how to use it
when it comes to changing your interface as it comes with all muds.
Playing high level content in the game is rewarding as well, and most
of the players are old time players of the game. You get out what you
put in, give it a try, you may love it.
