I've been playing Kotl for nearing a full year and I can vouch that you will never find a more friendly group of players, immortals and all around fun game than this one. I've tried other muds and I still stick with Kingdoms of the Lost. Players set up trivia games are friendly to chat with and are usually helpful when you have a question or are lost.

The best part I feel about Kingdom's of the lost is how newbie friendly it is. If you're looking for a fun run around hack and slash, but at the same time feel that you have a reason to enjoy personal one on one roleplay or large room roleplays between players of the MUD, then this is the MUD for you.
