What you are probally refering to is a MUD(This will serve your purpose.)

Try searchin around BYOND for the keywords: mud, text.

That should get you started, and I believe there are some tutorials that can help you get started.

Multiplayer _______ Dungeon.

I could be wrong though.

It stands for Multi User Dungeon. The 'D' can be interchanged with other words such as Domain.

Multi-User Dungeon.

I don't see why they need so many different expressions, but oh well....
I mean:
MUCK =Mutli-User Character Kingdom
MUD=Multi-User Dungeon
RPG=Role Play Game
ORPG=Online Role Play Game
MMORPG=Multi-Member Online Role Play Game
and then there are a few others I can't remember.....

WRONG!

All ORPGs = Multi-Membered. It means Massively Multiplayer... Sorry for correcting you I just didn't feel as if that was interchangeable.

No, there are a few ORPGs that only one person can play.
Like Adventure Quest:

Both interpretations are used, but I prefer Multi-Member.
If you choose to use Massively Multiplayer, go ahead.

Well, it looks like Wind might have meant to reply to Dan13, but somehow got messed up.

For MMORPGs, it stands for massively multiplayer in games such as EverQuest and World Of Warcraft. Multi-Member could be used for smaller games. Massively Multiplayer implies thousands upon thousands of people in the game.

I thought MMORPG stood for Massive Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game.
