How to play

You can play ge-next online right now, play locally on your own system, or set up your own server.

If you just want to start playing, join us on the WABAC BBS, the official home of the ge-next project. WABAC is where the creator and testers of ge-next hang out, and it will always have the latest version. Currently it is all about casual play, but more official competitions are planned for the future.

You can connect to WABAC via the web interface or by telnet.

If you want to play offline or host your own game, you can download The Major BBS or MBBSEmu, then download the appropriate ge-next build below.
