Vast Horizon

Welcome to Vast Horizon — a science fiction text-based world where humanity stands on the verge of rebirth after two centuries of oblivion. Once, Earth was destroyed in a war against the Kiohns, and the survivors found refuge in underground shelters on the distant planet Kapteynia Beta. Now you emerge from the darkness onto the surface, where the stars still shimmer. But remember: the galaxy no longer belongs to humankind.

You will discover a world inhabited not only by the remnants of humanity but also by the enigmatic Farolds — an ancient nomadic people who once saved humankind — as well as the relentless Kiohns, whose shadow still lies across the ruins of civilization. There are no familiar levels or classes here. You decide who you become: an artifact trader, an atmospheric explorer, a miner, a hunter of rare relics, or a master of asteroid towing. Everything you achieve depends solely on your choices and intellect.

The story unfolds through interactions with other players and through events directly tied to the world’s history. Every artifact unearthed, every handful of sifted gravel is more than just a resource — it’s a fragment of the narrative in which you will leave your mark.

Vast Horizon is a living universe where words, imagination, and your decisions shape everything. There are no visual maps — only depth you can feel through sound, text, atmosphere, and meaning. If you seek a game where the story is born from your actions and every dialogue can alter the world’s fate, know this: you have found your horizon.

Note: An official sound pack is available for the Vast Horizon project, designed for the VipMud client. It adds ambient sound, effects, and notifications, greatly improving navigation and enhancing the gameplay experience for blind players.
