Alter Aeon is a text-based MUD (Multi-User Dungeon) launched in 1996. As an old-school, niche fantasy MUD, it has a loyal but very small community focused on roleplaying and co-op gameplay. While it benefits from long-term fandom and accessibility across multiple platforms, the current daily active player base is likely limited to around 100–200 core users, typical for legacy MUDs without recent mainstream resurgence.
