Description:
One of the chief goals of The House of Lunduke BBS is to preserve the best of 1980s and 1990s BBS gaming in all its ANSI, colorful text art glory. With that goal in mind, I recently took the BBS Off-Line for a much needed retro-fit in order to properly accommodate a wider selection of classic BBS Door Games.

One of the chief goals of The House of Lunduke BBS is to preserve the best of 1980s and 1990s BBS gaming in all its ANSI, colorful text art glory. With that goal in mind, I recently took the BBS Off-Line for a much needed retro-fit in order to properly accommodate a wider selection of classic BBS Door Games.

That retro-fit is now complete and The House of Lunduke BBS is back On-Line and rocking!

You can access the BBS via telnet to: bbs.lunduke.com on port 23

While you can technically access the BBS via the standard telnet software included on most Linux systems, I highly recommend using a telnet client that is custom built for BBSs and ANSI systems.

Such as SyncTerm , Netrunner , Qodem , or EtherTerm .

Note : The House of Lunduke BBS is free for everyone to use for 30 minutes per day. If you are a subscriber to The Lunduke Journal you can get 24x7 (read: unlimited) access by following the instructions at the bottom of this page . Just one of the awesome perks for becoming a subscriber .

There are currently several games On-Line and playable including Trade Wars, LORD, Barren Realms Elite, The Pit, and a handful of others). A large collection of games are currently being moved over and setup for play (including Arrow Bridge, SRE, BBS Wars, Planets: TEOS, Usurper, Kannons & Katapults, and so many others).

Some of these games are multi-player / multi-node (where you can compete with other players in real-time). Some only allow one person to play at a time.

Keep an eye on the On-Line Game menu of the BBS to enjoy those games as they come On-Line in the coming days.

If you have specific game requests, feel free to let me know either in the comments here, over on Lunduke.Locals.com, or in the message area of bbs.lunduke.com. Share Subscribe now
