A cyberpunk graphical MUD
The grid went dark.
Something new is running.
Blackout is a cyberpunk graphical Multi-User Dungeon (MUD): a text-based online role-playing game with an experimental 3D client. Play from your browser. No download, no install.
The world of Blackout is being built on several design pillars. It is important to us that the players understand how we are approaching this game.
Sandbox World
There is no single "true" path through the game. Players define their own goals.
Persistence Pays
Long-term engagement is always rewarded. No action is wasted.
Accessible Depth
Anyone can pick up the game in an hour. Mastering it should take years.
Meaningful Social Fabric
Player-to-player interaction should feel significant and worth investing in.
