Disclaimer about BatMUD

BatMUD is a text-based game, hence buyer discretion is advised! All graphics in this game are solely for enhancing/supporting the text-gaming experience (read: this game does not contain graphics).

TL;DR

BatMUD is pure text. Yes, ASCII-characters, words and even elaborate sentences. Like a book that you interact with. However, it's not a multiple choice book but more of an open-ended choice. Play as you like, alone or with hundreds of others simultaneously online.

About This Game

There's a MUD on Steam.

Forge artifacts of power. Sail to faraway lands. Build a city in your name.

Establish your legacy. Perish, and be born anew.

See guilds fall, races become extinct - or be one to nurture them.

Explore the realm and roam free.

Hone your craft, by forge or by arcane arts, and empower yourself - or others, for a price.

Mature Content Description

The developers describe the content like this:

BatMUD contains hack n' slash features, therefore it has textual content where e.g. your character can attack and kill monsters or other beings. Sometimes these descriptions may be quite graphical, albeit in written form.
