The following review is the opinion of the review's author [Ozgur]
and in no way represents the opinions of this website or its staff.
Mozart is one of the very few MUDs that manages to be newbie-friendly
and yet maintains a steep enough learning curve to keep experienced
players around for years and years and years and years. The 14
classes are incredibly well balanced; high-level success is possible
with all classes, regardless of whether the player chooses to
dual-class or single. Equipment is well-designed and balanced, so
that it is easy enough to equip a decent set of equipment and a
challenge of years to assemble that perfect set.
Gameplay is a consistent challenge, even after over a decade of
playing. Whether in a group or solo, areas and mobs abound. The
world is more than large enough to force players of all levels to
explore and conquer a variety of areas, and more than dangerous enough
to make you do so with great care.
The playerbase is well-established, which means a lot of information
and suggestions are available for new players. Donation areas are
well-stocked, item identification is free for players under level 10,
and the help system is extensive. Give Mozart an hour, and you very
well might end up staying 10.
