For starters here is a link to Telnet to the game. If the link fails, check the settings in your browser and make sure that telnet:// is linked to a telnet program. If you still have problems, you can download GMUD, a simple mud client for Windows, from our server (it is a small zip self-extractor file). Another excellent MUD client is Mudlet which you can download here. Mudlet's connection manager comes pre-loaded with a number of MUDs including Midnight Sun that leverage the various GUI options that make Mudlet a more modern client.

If you have a client already, use the following settings to connect:

Instructions for installing and running GMud

• Click on the download GMUD link on our website.
• It will pop up with a question what to do. Answer: "Open"
• It will download the file and then give you a winzip screen asking for a location where you want to place the gmud program. In the textbox type something like:
  C:\Program Files\Gmud
• Click on the 'unzip' button
• Now start up a windows explorer and navigate to the folder you specified
• In this folder you will find a program called "gmud" or "gmud.exe"
• Doubleclick this and the program will start up
• After the program has been started click on the "file" menu and then on "connect"
• It will now present you with a connection screen that already points to our game
• Click on the "connect" button and you should get connected

Note that on the entry screen from our game you should use the c option to start creating a character to play with. After that simply answer the questions.
