We recommend you find a suitable Mush CLIENT program to use for interacting in New Seattle: Shadows Evolved, but if necessary there’s always the old fashioned way through Telnet.

Telnet and Client Programs

Telnet is an Internet protocol that allows your machine to connect to a remote computer and make use of resources, like a MUSH, that are located there. A client program incorporates the telnet protocol with the addition of commands and features specifically designed for playing games like MUSH.

These are the most commonly-used methods of connecting to a game like a MUSH. To use these, you must have a telnet or client program installed on your end of the connection. There are free and low-cost versions of telnet and client programs for virtually all types of operating systems – you do not need to be using Unix to play on a MUSH.

Your Web browser does not come with telnet installed, but most Web browers can be configured to lauch a telnet program that you have installed on your system. Once you’ve done that, you’ll be able to connect to a MUSH directly through the telnet program or through Web links.
