MUD (Multi-User Dungeon, Multi-User Dimension, or Multi-User Domain)


Text based virtual reality systems in which the environment and its population are described entirely by words. Action reads much like a novel in which you are the main character. You can interact with other players through scrolling text and explore to your hearts content. Muds can host any number of users internationally. Basically a social world in cyberspace.


MOO (MUD Object Oriented)


A type of Tiny MUD platform that has a user interface so severely altered from the other Tiny MUDs that it probably deserves its own category.


MUSH (Multi-User Shared Hallucination


A type of Tiny MUD platform that also has a user interface so severely altered from other Tiny MUDs that it deserves its own name.
