Rsnail and the Red Dragon

Lord WinterWow, it's almost been 15 years since I launched my first bulletin board system (BBS) to run the popular door game Legend of the Red Dragon (LORD). Legend of the Red Dragon was a text-based role-play game where multiple players play to advance their skills, and eventually kill the red dragon. Around the fall of 1995, I decided to create a winter version of LORD. This version included new text, monsters and events. The winter version appeared on many other bulletin boards, and much to my surprise a couple people actually sent the suggested $2.00 donation. I never cashed the cheques, they remain in my office today.

Club Penguin!

Well Penguins! It's been 5 years since the first Penguin Chat. Ever since we launched the first Penguin Chat, I have had a dream to create a safe, virtual world where children can play games,have fun and interact. Now we are very proud to announce the release of Club Penguin.

Each player chooses a penguin, gives it an identity and explores Club Penguin, interacting with other penguins by chatting, text messaging, playing games, sending greeting cards, or using emotes (emotion icons) and actions (ie. wave, dance, sit, walk or throw a snowball).

By helping other participants and playing games, players earn virtual coins that allow them to buy clothing and accessories for their penguin or furniture for their igloo.

Enjoy!

Please Note: Penguin Chat 3 will go offline on Friday, October 28.
