MUD Desk

  • Private development candidate

Mac; release requirements are still being checked

Keep a desk for your text adventures. MUD Desk brings your worlds, character records and exploration notes together in a Mac window. It is a private development candidate; public distribution is not open.

What you can do

Your world library

Choose an ACK world, launch a compatible local server, or add a remote MUD connection. Each world keeps its own place in the library.

Read and play

Read game text with ANSI colors and enter commands in the game window. Characters and journals are organized by world.

Keep track of discoveries

Write exploration notes and record landmarks so you can find your way back through a world.

Bring notes to Pocket DM

Export an exploration journal for Pocket DM. Saving an export creates a file; you choose where it goes.

Local and remote worlds

A local game runs on your Mac. A remote MUD is a game server you choose, and it receives the commands and login information you send. Its operator sets the game rules and handles its saved characters.

Current availability

The Mac candidate is being checked. Public downloads, release requirements and a release date have not been announced.
