The Dark and Wonderful MUD, Aetolia, the Midnight Age!

Never mind games that are graphic heavy such as World of Warcraft, what you want to be delving into is the wonderful realm that is Aetolia. A text game world so rich and diverse, steeped deep in history and mythology. A world with a medieval and fantastical theme combined with the dragons, vampires and many other dark and wonderful creatures of the deeps.

I have played the text game, Aetolia consistently for five years without fail and it still feels as fresh and as invigorating as the first day I logged in. A living game world with an ever-changing story line that in itself is completely dynamic and driven from both the staff and the players to create a compelling and immersive atmosphere.

You can step into the shoes of an avatar of your own creation, instilling your own views, reactions and attitudes on the perfect game hero or heroine. I was always in love with the idea of playing a vampire and Aetolia gave me the opportunity to create a character from your best loved vampire series, filled with dark motives, blood and ritualism that is all enhanced by the extended emotion system to convey your characters very own emotions to the rest of the players in the game world.

The best part of Aetolia is what you can achieve through a text-based MUD interface that simply cannot be done in any other graphical MMORPG. In addition, you get the added bonus of playing in a game world that is completely free from monthly subscriptions! While there are options for you to enhance your text game character slightly by the way of purchasing an in-game currency known as credits using real life money, this by no means dictates how your good your character can become.

Aetolia for me is a game world where you can achieve whatever you want with only your imagination being the limit. With a near perfect game staff and players that share my own sense of enthusiasm for the Midnight Age, you simply cannot be disappointed. Combined with the constant improvements and addition of in-game content, Aetolia is a game for you, me, your friends and family. All I want to say is come get your taste of the Midnight Age!
