Are you suffering from the Post-Christmas blues, do you want to play some good old fashioned games and do so online with your mates from Abandonia? If you do, well we have the answer for you.
One of the first MMO (massively multi-player online) games was published by Sierra, and it was called The ImagiNation Network. It had chat and many different games--from parlor to arcade and sports and a dungeon-crawling RPG--that you could play with your friends and anyone you met there. All this in 1991--incredible, huh?
Here you can see a small sample of part of the games and features (but the more people you play with, the more fun you'll have!):
This game is now not only in the past any longer, because it has been brought back to life by some dedicated people and can now be downloaded from our site. Moreover, this used to be very expensive in the 90s, but now it's free to play! We here at Abandonia want to show our thanks to the people who brought it back, and the best way is to have as many of us as we can log in and play some games with each other over the next week. We hope to see you there these holidays.
Click on the heading of this post to go into the multi-player section of our forums, where you can organize games and join them. (First download and install the game if you haven't yet.)
