Empire (online game)
|
|
Empire was a MUD, a text-based online role-playing game, founded in 1992 by Farhaj "Astafas" Hashmi and several associates. It received critical praise. Game characteristics Empire was set in a medieval fantasy world; gameplay is primarily hack and slash. The MUD was noted as complex and unsuitable for beginners. Player character names and statistical information were not initially divulged to other players. This has been considered to foster an improved atmosphere for role-playing. Player killing is unrestricted; though that was not the primary focus of the game, it was generally prominent in commentary. History Empire was founded in 1992. It apparently went offline in July 2010, its operations spanning 18 years. Reception Empire received critical praise for using identity ambiguity and player versus player conflict to create a tense and exciting atmosphere, and for its pace of development. It has been called "one of the best MUDs out there". Technical infrastructure Empire was based on DikuMUD.
