Utopia

I start playing it again recently. last time I played it was 4 years ago. text games(all calculation) are more fun than any other games out there.

I played that too, but utopia is more fun and more interaction with others.

I searched long and hard to find a game called "Empire" (based on Hammurabi) for TRS-80, and finally found it as part of a CLOAD cassette tape dump on TRS-80.com. Fired up an emulator and was instantly transported back to elementary school computer class in 1986... fun times... :D

Also rediscovered an old DOS game called "The Wizard's Castle" which I originally played on a DEC Rainbow 100 running MS-DOS 2.11. :confused: I recently found the original program online and it works perfectly fine on XP.

I've been playing a text-based MMORPG called MajorMUD for the last ~9 years.

I play Canon, Earth 2025 and Utopia right now.. looking for guilds or groups for all 3 games. Extremely n00bish at earth 2025 and Utopia, but seem fairly easy to get started on.

i played earth 2025 many years ago. best rank i got was #3 or 4 on one of the B servers.

my favorite web based game is/was ultracorps. it's been killed and reborn several times in the past 8 years. another company bought the rights to it recently and they're trying to bring it back. http://ultracorps.sjgames.com/

right now i'm playing orbital threat. http://forums.anandtech.com/messageview...atid=38&threadid=1456432&enterthread=y
i did well last round considering i was factionless the whole game, i was the highest ranked player with no faction :D. but this new round i'm getting ganked hard so far by the largest 2 factions. :(
