(The following review comment is the opinion of the comment's author

or its staff).
There are room descriptions, unless they were disabled by player
config command. The only people who get lost are the ones who ignore
the starting room description and the prompt to read 'help newbie'
upon first login. The only people who die within 5 minutes are the
ones who wander off without reading and get lost. The game has been
open to the public for 7+ years (9+ in development), with thousands
of players coming through in that time. There are numerous players
who have been around almost the entire time the game has been open to
the public, and have logged thousands of hours each.
I can only assume the person posting this 'review' is the same Marlon
who logged into the game on March 23rd. If that is the case, basic
logging shows that Marlon played for precisely 2 minutes and 38
seconds, and accessed no help entries within that time span. Marlon
wandered off the beaten path, ignored a sign (referenced in a room
description) stating, ''Tserak Advisory: Travelers, stay off the
Plains to the south.' - Alexandrian Royal Guard,' walked south onto
the Plains, was killed by an aggressive monster (Tserak Beast) and
immediately typed 'quit'. There isn't even a penalty for dying. Take
this 'review' with a mountain of salt.
