i have no idea what would be considered as a "cool feature" let
alone a "feature" in a MUD... moving, looking, taking, dropping
and various forms of fighting are all that i'm aware of... even finding
hidden passages but these are all things in the traditional MUDs like
adventure, rogue, nethack, colossal cave and similar... there may or may
not be special quests and puzzles, riddles, or word games to figure out to
achieve some goals but they're all about the same... choose your character
race and skills and then play away...
