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

Pros - a lot of mutations, weapons, armours to choose from while
playing. Interesting npcs to interact with to some degree. Some fun
places to explore lots of easter eggs from other post apoc
games/words. That's really about it.

Cons - only a small amount of mutations, weapons, armours are worth
getting. When you get them several people will be along shortly to
kill you and take it, and wait for you to come back to your corpse to
get anything they didn't take to kill you again, and again and track
you to your house and pick open your door to kill you again and take
everything in your house too.

This game is simply infested with a class of players whos only
purpose is to harrase and grief other players off the game and make
them miserable. The rules about griefing, harrasing are largely
ignored as for the most part its the player alts of admins doing it or
their friends to the point its entirely just pointless to try and play
just because of lack of any kind of rules and the general player base.

I've got to agree to some extent with this review. I think that
HellMOO's code is some of the best I've ever seen, and the NPC
and area designs are smart, funny, and enjoyable. The other players,
though, many of whom are Something Awful goons, are pretty much the
exact opposite of funny, smart, and enjoyable. Think 'Frat Boys Run
Amok' (and often having entirely too good a time with the game's
simulated mano-a-mano sex, hur hur hur), and you've got the tone of
the player base.

Unless you like hanging around with aggressively obnoxious and
childish jerks, avoid this game.
