Your game artwork in shared links. Links to game listings, reviews, and game statistics use the game’s uploaded banner or logo artwork in a 1200×630 preview card. The entire image fits proportionally, with the game name included, including wide banners, square logos, and transparent artwork.
A clear fallback. Pages without game artwork, and listings with missing or unusable images, use a branded MUDVerse card so shared links still have a readable preview.
Consistent previews across platforms. Matching Open Graph and Twitter image metadata helps supported social and messaging platforms show the same card and descriptive image text when you share a page link.
Game owners can update their listing’s banner to change the artwork used in its preview. See the Game Banner Guide for upload guidance. Social platforms may keep an older preview until they refresh their cached copy.
Get to know the top-ranked games at a glance, and share your feedback with us.
More context while browsing the rankings. The homepage top-games table now includes compact tags beneath each game’s introduction, helping you compare themes, roleplay policies, and player-versus-player rules.
Details from each game’s listing. Tags use the information provided on MUDVerse listings. RP labels describe roleplay policies, and PvP labels describe player-killing rules. Open a game’s listing to explore its description and other features.
Easy to scan on smaller screens. The tags wrap within each game’s row, keeping names, ranks, and vote totals readable on mobile.
A refreshed contact page. The contact page has a clearer layout, a breadcrumb back home, and guidance for getting in touch. We welcome feedback, listing issues, and bug reports, with a direct email link to reach us.
Choose how you view MUD statistics, and explore the population of a typical game.
Switch between chart views. The MUD Statistics page now offers bars, doughnuts, and tables for server-reported categories, directory categories, and collection coverage. Population bands offer bars and tables. Doughnuts group smaller categories together, while bars and tables let you see every category.
Keep the games you are exploring. Changing a chart view keeps your selected category and matching-game results open, including your current results page. Your choice of view is included in the URL, so you can share it or return to it using your browser history.
More ways to read activity patterns. On an individual game’s statistics page, hourly and weekday activity can now be shown as lines, bars, or a table with average player counts and sample counts. The weekly heatmap remains available, and switching back restores your chosen chart style.
See how the typical game is doing. Choose Typical game population in the global activity chart to see the median of the reporting games’ daily player averages. Each game has equal weight, and a shaded band shows the middle 50% of those averages. This complements the total-player chart, where larger games have more influence.
The population trend uses game-reported player counts, not unique people. Weekly and monthly views average the daily medians and shaded bounds. Missing days stay as gaps, and changes in which games report can affect the trend. A preparation message appears until the new population figures are available.
