If this is the one I think it is, I played it periodically when my primary MUD was offline in the mid 90s. It's kind of like how people who have read original books say that a movie version is rarely better, and people who only watch movies cannot believe that "just words" can be better. But really, especially for (massively, by those standards) multi-player, words and text descriptions were wonderful.
