Some BBS installs have a web front end leveraging Java, which work quite well. Here is a link to a page that talks about the game in detail, and has some links to where you can telnet to, and play it. However, I thought it was worth mentioning.įor those of you who scoff at playing some door games on the BBS, I suggest you try Usurper. This may be related to the fonts yet again.

First, I noticed that the backspace doesn't work automatically under the terminal when connecting to telnet sessions.

I don't know where Mac software likes to hide ). If you dig deeper or try harder, you might have more success. A quick Google search didn't turn up much, here are the only two things I found. I don't use OS X (although I intend to soon when I buy a new PC), so I can't offer much.
