Alter Aeon is a multi-player online game, where players can play with
or against each other in a huge world filled with challenges. It is
free to play, and it isn't a crippled version designed to get you to
buy something else later. All you need to start is a telnet client,
a little bit of time, and a little bit of patience.
The game itself is a text adventure, and you must create and name a new
character when you enter the game. You control your character by
giving it commands, such as 'cast' to cast a spell, 'get' to pick up
something, and 'look' to see what is around you. As
your character advances and learns things, it will gain increased
abilities, powers, and you may even make a few good friends.
There is a place for everyone here. The brave of heart can trek to the edges
of world in search of fortune and fame, and sometimes bring home vast
treasures. Those less confident in their abilities can remain in safer
or more protected lands, or join up with others to reduce risk. Come
test your mettle in the world of Alter Aeon!

Anyone can connect to the game with regular telnet,
allowing people from across the world to play regardless of the speed or type
of their computer. If you want a specialized client that has more features,
we try to keep current a short list in our 'How To Connect
section.
Microsoft Windows users - we have a custom client you can use to connect
to the game right from your desktop! Just click on
this link (AlterAeonLauncher.exe)
to download it. Click on 'save to desktop' to give it an icon. The file should only take
a few seconds to download.
The custom client is based on the popular PuTTY
client. For PuTTY information and source code, see the
PuTTY Home Page.
PuTTY is an excellent telnet/ssh client that is freely available. Our version neither
adds nor removes features, and only changes a handful of default settings.
For a listing of many other clients, try our How
To Connect page.
Or, you can click on this link,
which will try to connect to the game through your browser. If this
doesn't work, you'll have to download a client and open a connection to
alteraeon.com on port 3000.
This section will give you some background information, guide you through
creating your first character, and will show you how to control your new
character.

Here you can read about some of the people involved with Alter Aeon. There are
web pages for players, builders, gods, and even for Dentin. If you are a
current player, post a note to Dentin to be added to this page.
Miscellaneous resources for Alter Aeon, as well as links about playing in
general. Lots of good stuff for the intermediate player to chew on, and some
pretty funny stories that will probably only make sense to the advanced player.
The web page of our sister mud, Banished Lands. Banished uses an older and
more stable version of DentinMud, v1.02+, and is a year younger than Alter
Aeon. With similar features and game play between the two, players on one
mud may also find the other enjoyable.
