Evennia
Python MUD/MUX/MUSH/MU* development system
Evennia is a mature, open-source framework written in Python — specifically designed to build text-based, online multiplayer games such as MUDs, MUCKs, MUSHes, MUXes, and other “MU-style” virtual worlds. Rather than prescribing a rigid game structure, Evennia gives you a bare-bones but powerful foundation: default systems handle networking, database/storage, server management, user accounts, characters, rooms, items, chat channels, and basic commands — but you define the gameplay rules, content, and game logic yourself in pure Python modules. ...
