MUME: Multi Users in Middle Earth

Year: Opened 1992, still running
Version: VI
Type: Diku MUD
Distribution: On-line
Availability: Telnet
Licensed: No

MUME is set before The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings. It takes a lot of inspiration from ICE's Middle-earth Role Playing game.

Currently, all of Arda, as Tolkien described it, is open and very detailed. The map is in scale with Tolkien's own maps.

The addresses below may change. See the official web page for up-to-date information.

Personal evaluation: Difficult to get into, but probably worth the effort once you do.
