The Realm
The Realm was designed to combine the animated visual environments and inventories of Sierra's point-and-click adventure games with the role-playing mechanisms of MUDs. The game features a high fantasy setting inspired by Dungeons & Dragons and The Lord of the Rings. Gameplay takes place in discrete rooms, which are organized into dungeons, forests and towns.
