Anybody here do the BBS thing back in the day?

I was pretty big into it about 10 years ago, and played the game called Exitilus. I loved that game. A few days ago, I looked around and found a BBS I could telnet that had Exitilus. Just curious if anyone else played this game or possibly still does?

It's DnD style game. Fight monsters, gain experience, level-up. But on top of that, you had Kingdoms to belong to. If you got in early, you started your own kingdom, otherwise you became a member of another, trying to overthrow your king or become a co-king. Basically, the game is over once one kingdom destroys all of the others. Then it restarts and you play again.

So call me a geek, nerd, whatever. But I'm just wondering if there are any others out there.

Not sure about the BBS based text games...but they still have Muds out there....they have a few you can DL and create your own, too...

i ran a BBS (Binary Star East, on DragonNet) in the Atlanta metro area, it had several door games, Risk, LotRD, VGA Planets... fun.

i prefer muds, specificly ancient anguish

Didn't play that one, but I do remember playing some gladiator-style game on a BBS back in the day. Can't for the life of me remember its name. You got your weapons and armor, then went in to a one on one fight vs either an AI or another player.

Later on, I was introduced to TEOS and LORD. Good times
