A Multi-User Simulated Environment
Much like a
mud or
mush, a MUSE is text-based
virtual reality in which characters can interact with others within an environment of rooms and objects that can be explored. MUSE, like
moo and unlike
mud, tends to be more for educational and social purposes, rather than combat and
death.
