There’s an Aztec city building game called Tlatoani. It’s in early access, but has enough meat on the bone that it’s one of my goto games.

Out of curiosity I checked Steam DB for active player numbers. I have discovered at any given point I am 10% to 25% of the given player base BY MYSELF. I am 1 of 4 people playing this game right now in the world. With the prevalence of the internet I always assume whatever weird bullshit you’re into there’s at least a thousand people talking about it; making memes outsiders could never comprehend. It’s actually novel to fly under the radar for once.

What do you do that doesn’t have a community associated with it?

    200 is a lot of people for a mud. The only one I know of that’s that big is aardwolf. Which do you play?

        Nice! I got about two remorts in, but haven’t played in a while. It’s a pretty solid mud.

        I’ll always have a soft spot for Project Bob, which I think shut down. Diablo-style items and a very fast paced combat system. Alas. Time marches on.

          Yeah no kidding. I played one called exile. I think it’s still there, but it’s only afkers and basically not much to do. At least aard has some social aspect.
