Hi Emily, Welcome! I’m a longtime list member and it’s always nice to see a new face, so to speak. If I may begin with a question, do you have an iPhone, or another Apple device? One of my top recommendations for fantasy and the like is played on iOS, and so that may or may not be open to you. It’s hard to make a small list of suggestions. There is quite a bit out there. I’ll try, though. 1. King of Dragon pass, iOS fantasy strategy game. This one is something of a hobby horse of mine—I helped make it accessible a few years back and so have played it quite a bit. Basically it’s a roleplaying and strategy game in which you lead a clan of people to settle a new land, the titular Dragon Pass. It’s rather unique, and has a little bit of everything from battles and heroic quests to dealing with your clan’s internal politics, all spiced by a bunch of potential random events to make each game replayable. It takes a bit to get into, but has an excellent instruction manual readable within the game, or online. One potential issue is the price—it’s $9.99, which is a lot in the app world. I personally feel it’s worth every penny. KoDP is in the App Store at https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/king-of-dragon-pass/id335545504?mt=8 2. Alter Aeon Mud. This one is more traditional, and potentially cool if you want lots of sound effects and so on. There is a fan-made client and sound pack for Windows which turns this otherwise pretty hack and slash mud into an experience almost like the MMORPGs sighted players play, without the graphics. It’s a lot of fun, and incredibly popular hereabouts. The gameplay is pretty much hack and slash as I said, spiced with quests and more traditional mudding stuff. I’m personally more of a roleplayer than a hack and slash fan, but I feel obliged to recommend the game to you anyway. The client is found at http://www.mush-z.com. It’s not the same playing the mud without it, but that’s at www.dentinmud.org if you feel so inclined. These are two recommendations to hopefully get you started. Others will probably chime in with more, and I’m running over the message size limits as it is. I hope you enjoy, and do keep us posted. Best, Zack. --- Gamers mailing list __ [email protected] If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to [email protected].
