DizzyMud

OK. In "The Ancient Times" of computer games, there was something called a MUD (Multi User Dungeon). There were no pretty graphics, and even a very limited colored text set was optional.

You walk into a room, it describes the room, the monsters (called Mobs or Mobiles) and NPC characters, as well as other players. You type KILL GOBLIN, and combat would start. Text flies by, and you type KICK, etc. to influence combat... you get your gold and bonuses.

Anyway, you will have to download a "Client Software" to do this. Almost everyone has a basic terminal software, but eventually you will need the extra features of the client software.

Check out http://www.dizzymud.com/ for a link to the game, and client downloads.
