MUD stands (sometimes) for multi-user dungeon… it’s essentially a text based mmorpg that’s usually light on the “massive”(the more popular MUD I played on for a while had a max concurrent user count somewhere around 120) and they tend to be very focused on role-playing and descriptions rather than mechanics - though your mileage may vary, a few are extremely focused on the mechanics and pay little attention to role-playing.
It’s quite fun and the communities are always really welcoming, I’d suggest giving it a try if it sounds interesting!
All MUDs are Linux compatible the play method is just having a telnet client. I don’t have any personal suggestions since my old favorite closed its doors but I’ve heard good things about Armageddon MUD.
What’s a MUD?

That does sound interesting! Have any you’d recommend? (And that are preferably Linux-compatible. ^_^)
