Some of the fun things you can do within the Mud.

Missions

Repeatable missions should soon be available all over the Disc.

Genuan Families - The Coffee Nostra

There are three Coffee Nostra families.

  • Corolla, in the Stables.
  • Gumboni, in the Casino.
  • Couer Lion, in the Pizzeria.

Families assign missions. You must be in good standing with a family to join it.

The Coffee Nostra system is shrouded in mystery and intrigue, with the "getting them to like you enough to let you join" question being the biggest one that tends to stump people as far as I can tell.

From my investigations, discussions, bug replies, etc, here are the few bits of info I'm relatively sure about:

* Killing the important members of a family makes them all dislike you, but killing the nameless goons is fine (and may indeed help) - this is to discourage killing the important members who are needed to interact with the family system.

* You can raise your rep with the Corolla family (in the used horse yard) by winning matches in the fight club in the sewers.

* I suspect you may be able to raise your rep with the Gumbonis (casino) by doing things at the racetrack or casino... I'm not sure if winning money or losing it would make them like you... or if it has any impact.

* There is (or was - may have been changed) no lower limit to your reputation with families. So if you have hunted family areas and killed the important members repeatedly in the past, you may as well give up until a cre has time to poke things, since your rep is probably well beyond reasonable recovery.

Grimrak commented that "If you kill any family's Consigliere, you will annoy every family."

Agatean Families

If you join an Agatean family, you can perform missions for them.

CTF Arena

The capture the flag arena is for team games. NPKs and PKs may play. It involves fighting with the provided equipment and trying to hoist underwear.

CTF Boxes

CTF boxes are for PK games. They can be purchased in Hillshire.

Pub Games

Several pubs in Genua have games machines in them. Darts can be played in several pubs across the disc. The Monks of Cool have a skittle alley and an impball table.

Board Games, card games and dice games

The Turn off the Crystal Ball shop in Ankh-Morpork in the Isle of Gods sells several board games and similar things. They may be placed as furniture, and so can be found sometimes in player shops or in various other locations around the Disc.

  • ---ing words game
  • Backgammon
  • Battleslugs
  • Boggle
  • Chess
  • Connect Four
  • Hearts
  • Klondike solitaire
  • Liars dice
  • Lost cities
  • Mancala
  • Mastermind
  • Mensa regis
  • Passways
  • Quick categories
  • Scrabble
  • Six nimmt
  • Solitaire peg game

You can also rent scrabble, chess, backgammon, six nimmt, and mastermind games at the pub in the Lower Djel Trading Post, south of the Klatchian Foreign Legion outpost.

The rules and syntaxes for these games can be found in the help files for the boards themselves (so that you can "help scrabble" if you have a Scrabble board, for example).

Publicly accessible games

Chess can be played in the Academy of Artificers garden, at the Traveler's Inn in Ankh-Morpork, in the lounge of the Cutangle Inn in Brass Neck, in the Fang Family Estate Entertainment Room in Bes Pelargic, and outside the tavern in Il Drim.
