@satch Ah I see. I fixed that bug. You should be able to escape the map now. :) I have also made it possible to execute conscious murderers--in the name of justice, of course!

Ok sweet, yes your fix worked. I still cannot kill the sleeping murderer right in front of me, however. Also, I have a link to execute waking murderers but it doesn't seem to do anything.
Now my character sees only the # Maze of MURDERS header and nothing else...
absolutely lovely ascii arts! got some wolf3d vibes. only thing to address from my view is that there is not much to do once you have murdered all the sleeping players near the exit and stole all their things (sorry). took a pretty long tour and explored about fifty percent of the map but found nothing and no one.
@johan that’s just because this game is pretty much over as I already stole most of the treasures 😝
that did strike me as an explanation... this game really brings out the worst in us, in a fun way. anyway I also liked the yelling and carving features. close to a local instance of Castledon

Thanks, @satch for the bug reports. I fixed the execute-a-murderer feature, which gives the players the opportunity to "serve justice" (and rob) without becoming a murderer themselves. Also, congrats. on the win!
@johan I'm glad you like the art...anyway a new game has now begun so now's your chance to get in there and hoard.

I've added a daily limit of play to 30 minutes which should make the wall-kits more valuable (so you can hope to survive the night) and threat of starvation more real.
Navigation... In Lagrange, pressing the ALT key with a number does a virtual click on the first 10 links...
If you manage to keep the first few links for consistent navigation directions - even if the direction is not available (Label as not available and just send it to an error page) -- navigation would be much easer!

@stack Good idea. I'll add that!
I've been thinking about adding a bulletin board to the game for discussion. Do you think that would be a good idea? Or, myabe I could request a sub-space on BBS. Suggestions?
Maze of MURDERS — I just finished programming an ASCII art Gemini multiplayer game. It's called "Maze of MURDERS." Give it a try and send any feedback you have. Thanks! The URL is [gemini link]
