Ancient Anguish is 10 years old. Think about it a bit. A 10 year oldtext-only game, that a people still play regularly. How many other games have a staying power like that ?
Sure, a text-only game does not look fancy, so you have to use your imagination and visualize your surroundings...but perhaps that is what makes this game so addictive and attractive.
(Well, it's not only that, actually - I could list 10-20 reasons why this game lasts while other similar mud-style games that were popular 10 years ago have lost all their players, but well...if you are interested, go find out.)
