Fado is a Multi User Dungeon (MUD) client for Android devices.
In its original concept, MUD stands for Multi-User Dungeon. Nowadays, no matter the theme of the game, a MUD is a multiplayer real-time virtual world, described primarily in text. MUDs combine elements of role-playing games, hack and slash, player versus player, interactive fiction and online chat.
Fado, being a MUD client, is the interface that lets you connect to a myriad of MUD servers around the world. This is not a game; this is the gateway to hundreds of text games.
Key features:
- can connect to plain or TLS sockets
- supports multiple simultaneous connections
- negotiation of NAWS, MSSP, MCCP_V2, OSC 8
- 256 color support
- multiple configurable joysticks
- multiple configurable gestures
- multiple configurable gyroscope tilts
- pinch zoom to easily zoom in and out console text (double tap to return to default zoom)
- disable line wrap - depending on the MUD you are connected to and your own way of playing, it can be useful and enhance gameplay
- Fake MXP: on each word you click in, a radial menu appear with configurable options (you can make use of Font Awesome 6.6.0 icons and regular expressions, Java flavor)
- Autocomplete on input line (configurable)
- Triggers, aliases and timers (all configurable)
- .vib, .tts, .toast and .not commands, to make device vibrate, do a text-to-speech sound, create a toast message or a notification (configurable)
- enhanced accessibility through fully cutomizable terminal colours, OpenDyslexic font and text-to-speech commands
- write logs to file
- notes/journal, to store text documents using a rich editor
- scripting, via Lua, on a Fado specific IDE
