Description
Puzzlebox is a science fiction/transhuman/"postfurry" MUCK set in a dreamlike city on a cryptically hyperintelligent megastructure. Most characters are furries with futuristic trappings, but all sorts of strange cosmic beasties abound. Food, shelter, and even healthcare are available at the blink of an eye, so there's nothing left to fight over except for ideas -- and no way to fight over them except for art and seduction. Puzzlebox is different from many other MU*'s in that it takes place in a richly developed original world, but it's still fairly freeform and loosely regulated. While we hope you'll find our players to be fun and friendly, we also pride ourselves on investing serious thought and, more importantly, emotion into our virtual lives. At its best, Puzzlebox is also a social experiment, a work of collaborative art, a philosophical conundrum, a laboratory for identity play, and sometimes a bit of group therapy. :) Membership is by application only -- intellectually curious, open-minded people who play well with others, daydreamers and romantics preferred. Please visit our webpage or email functionxor@gmail.com for more information.

Self-described "post-furry MUCK" set in a cryptic, dreamlike city suspected of being on the verge of sentience. Most characters are furries with futuristic trappings, but all sorts of strange cosmic beasties abound. Food, shelter, and even healthcare are available there at the blink of an eye, so there's nothing left to fight over except for ideas -- and no way to fight over them except for art and seduction. Theme areas include a 1970's modernist utopia, a tribalistic cyberpunk ruin, an aristocratic kingdom, a never-ending street fair, a gorgeous piazza corrupted by an amoral biotech infection, and a bouncy psychedelic faeryland ruled by a wind-up mouse. Membership is by application only -- intellectually curious, open-minded people who play well with others. Daydreamers and romantics preferred. Read the web page for details. [2]
