* [[http://www.jointhesaga.com/ OtherSpace]]: One of the longest-running MUSHes (online since 1998), OS is self-described as a space opera/science fantasy interactive saga. Notable for having had 17 game-wide story arcs (plus hundreds of more localized ones) and for being willing to completely alter the structure of the game in order to keep the story going: since 1998, the game has gone from being set several hundred years into the future, to being set on a spaceship full of refugees ([[NotMakingThisUpDisclaimer yes, the whole game was on one ship. For a *year*.]]), to being a thousand years in the future, to having the universe crack and start to break around the players. During this time, wars have been fought; planets have been destroyed or otherwise made uninhabitable; systems have been ravaged; [[NotMakingThisUpDisclaimer Jupiter got turned into a sun]]; and people have been TouchedByVorlons. Most recently, the universe broke, tossing people from every era another thousand years ahead. OtherSpace has something of a reputation for elitism, but this is just a side-effect of highly literate, enthusiastic roleplayers who desire quality in their RP; they're quite newbie-friendly. They have a [[http://otherverse.wikia.com/wiki/Main_Page wiki]].

* [[CaptainNTheGameMaster Videoland]] MUSH: Defunct. In its prime was a (slightly) more-serious take on its [[CaptainNTheGameMaster source material]], expanding the cast to eight Gamemasters (four good, representing Nintendo, Sega, Sony, and Atari; four evil, representing Microsoft, defunct game systems, cheating devices, and... Sony again), and later ten (adding portable systems for the heroes, and computer gaming for the villains).

* [[CaptainNTheGameMaster Videoland]] MUSH: Defunct.

* [[http://www.megamanmush.com/ Mega Man MUSH]]: A rather long-standing MUSH based on the ''MegaMan'' games. Combines elements from almost all of the various series into one coherent setting, albeit by taking quite a few liberties with the canon time line. Has a [[http://www.megamanmush.com/ website and wiki]].
