MUME is a multiplayer text-based RPG where Middle-earth comes alive in every line. Based on the works of Tolkien, the game transports you to the late Third Age — a time when Light and Darkness are preparing for their final battle.
Choose your path: become an Elf, Dwarf, Man, or Dúnadan — or side with the Orcs and Trolls. Explore over 26,000 rooms of the open world — from the green hills of the Shire to the dark ruins of Angmar — complete with dynamic day-night cycles and weather changes. The roleplay system is deep and demanding: combat is an art, and crafting and trading are key to survival. Expect harsh PvP with real consequences for death. Legendary artifacts, intricate quests, and a constantly evolving world await you.
IMUME offers no flashy graphics — only the pure power of imagination, where every victory is hard-earned, and every mistake may be fatal.
Middle-earth awaits its hero. Will you defend the Free Peoples or join the forces of Darkness?
