Like other reviewers, I've been playing at MA on and off for over 10 years. When I started mudding, I played at various other muds for a while...PK muds, LP, etc. I bounced around quite a few different muds before eventually landing at Mystic Adventure. Once I started playing here, I've never played anywhere else.

Like other reviewers have stated, a huge part of MA's strength is its players. Nearly everyone there is friendly, courteous...and we LOVE to help players who are new to the realm.

But as most mudders know, players come and go pretty regularly. The thing that has kept me coming back to mystic for over 10 years is the game itself. The immortals have done(and continue to do!) an AMAZING job making MA a fun place for everyone, newbies and older players alike. There is endless variation everywhere you turn...classes, areas, quests, PK battles(if desired), and everything is VERY well balanced. Every time I play I learn something new. I don't think I'll ever learn everything there is to know about the world, and to me, that's what keeps me coming back. And if I ever did, we have some amazing area creators that are constantly working to make sure I don't :).

In my experience, the learning curve at MA is very shallow compared to other muds. Learning 'how' to play the game is easy, especially with all the great players there who love to help out. Learning all the intricacies, and how to play the game 'well' is the challenge and is why I love MA. I never get bored.

Come check us out and meet the MA family. We're always looking for new folx to group with. Pop in and say hi!

Well to start, I have tried a few other ones, including one that a guy at my work has made and nothing that I have tried comes close to the reality that I have found on Mystic. Everyone including the Mobs are friendly :). There are people always auctioning items for any level person. There are a few Mentors at any given time that are able to help. There are the ones that are there for Comedy *won't mention any names for any of these folks*.

We have Player Battles when the Imms feel its great to do. All the Imms are Very Friendly. But all and all we have just received a new Contient to play on which puts us well above any other mud I have come across.

The players are what makes the mud and I have to say the players on Mystic(ALL of them) are Great Folks. There are clans, and even if you're not in a clan, anyone is willing to lend a hand when they can. I suggest you check it out if you want Fun, Killings, and Sometimes Battles. Head over to Mystic now to check out where the Real Fun is!.

Hello, I've been a player on mystic for about 8 years now. I'm writing here for two reasons. 1) our name server has been down so a lot of people can't connect. The answer - use our addy 67.42.155.223 port 4000 or 5000

2) This is by far the best mud i've ever played. I've been on several other muds that are listed on TMC and i haven't found anything that meets the feeling I get when I play here on Mystic. With a base of players who have been here as long, or longer than me. There are always people there to help out, play along with, or just to chat.

The mud is always and will probably forever be expanding. Higher level areas are a big draw lately, which push for exploration and leveling. There are several clans which add a sense of bonding and give the ability to learn the mud through others. The imms put on some great extra events like sieges, battles, quests that can add to the experience of the mud. There are plenty of classes and races out there to choose from and the equipment is always expanding. Come along and see why i think that Mystic is by far one of the superior Muds out there.

Many years ago I left this wonderful mud behind me due to real life concerns. Recently I returned to this mud at the behest of a few of the players. What made this mud great is still what makes this mud great, the people. You can say what you want about the code, the adventure, or anything else, but the people are what make muds great. Mystic Adventure has some of the greatest people ever playing. They welcomed me with open arms, they helped me reorient myself with playing, and they've been a constant support and companion. If you're having problems they will listen, if you need information they are giving, and they are always there.

I've been on Mystic for over ten years now - thankfully, there are very good reasons for this! It was not my first mud, but one of several I started out with - and the only one that has stuck AND been consistently well-administered, updated, and active. The player base has always been very dedicated and involved with the life of the mud - there are opportunities for players and clans to sponsor quests or trivia contests, envision and create areas, and offer input into the development of new features of the world.

The sheer size of Mystic Adventure is staggering - and almost every single room is unique to the mud, courtesy of a large and creative community of builders. Areas and quests are generally well-designed and original, and in recent years have become increasingly complex and challenging, some requiring a great deal of strategy and cooperation, not to mention skill, to conquer. And, the development continues apace, with new areas opening regularly.

Numerous other features, many of which have been implemented following discussion among the players, make Mystic a unique and accomodating environment - certain players serve as Mentors to newbies, certain lead by example as Heros or Clan Leaders, and others bring their talents to the administration of the mud as Immortals. I have seen all kinds of players in my time here - those who play socially, those who roleplay, those who end up getting married in r/l (that's real life ;) ), those who go for power, those who choose to explore - and the end result is a mud where anyone will have an enjoyable time and play according to their individual style.

Hopefully you will get a chance to stop by and check out the mud - if you see me, be sure to say hi.

Mystic Adventure, great place to spend some time. The players for the most part, are great people. The imm staff is active and always on the prowl for things to make the mud better or bigger, with new unique areas being added faitly often. The mud's a big place with a little something for everyone, restricted pkill areas, battles, sieges, quests and sometimes fun trivia games to break up the leveling(and you can now level to 8999, so u might be our first 1000).

There are loads of races and subraces, allowing one to find a good fit for their character, lots of neat classes also, not just your mage cleric warrior, but also priests, crusaders, samurais, warlords, adepts, bandits, psionicists, brigands and more. This mud has been around for a long time, still has some players who have been here 10 years or more, so if you are looking for a new experience, and have the time(Mystic can be addictive) log in and have a look around.

I've enjoyed this mud for a very long time. Thought I'd submit a review to tell folks what it's like. My favorite part is the sheer size of the realm - its HUGE - well over 25,000 rooms. I've played a long time and still learn things / find new elements. The life of the mud, though is from the playerbase. A helpful, enjoyable group of people, always willing to help out newbies of all types. Plenty of races and classes to choose from, a huge selection of spells as well. I started playing Mystic Adventure because I'm lazy- I hated typing the whole word 'look in...etc' I bring this up to show just one small detail about how immensely modified this mud really is. Most of the neat elements of code that circulate the mud community have been added, as well as hundreds of their own.

All in all, a very colorful, fun world to play in. Not too many ppl and not too few. Average about 25 or so a night.

Please come by and take a look. If you enjoy it, stay a while - and be sure to say hello :) Candor
