Good text-based RPGs
« on: October 30, 2009, 02:41:37 pm »

I recently was playing Liberal Crime Squad and having a lot of fun doing it. It has wet my whistle for more text based RPGs, but I do not know of any. Does anybody have any suggestions? Thank you.

how text based are you thinking? there's a list of good roguelikes in the thread about them (several threads actually, RL are a popular subject) they're mostly played with text-based graphics (like the site action of LCS), but many will also include dialogs/quests and similar stuff which is also handled in text (naturally).

I tried to play chess but two of my opponents were playing competitive checkers as a third person walked in with Game of Thrones in hand confused cause they thought this was the book club.

Yeah, I've been playing the roguelikes and liking them. But I was wondering if there were games more like LCS or Dopewars or something. Like where you would go to different sites and do stuff, but a more fantasy based game.
