Explore This 3D World Rendered In ASCII Art:
Pixelated RPGs are pretty standard in games like Legend of Zelda and Pokemon, but have you ever seen anything like ASCIICKER? It's a full-color three-dimensional world rendered with ASCII art and playable in your browser. [Ed's Comment: It works with Brave and Firefox, but not with Pale Moon in our very limited testing.]
For the time being, the game exists as an experiment. There's no storyline or goals other than exploring the world, although you can meet up with (or follow) others exploring the game - although all of the sprites look the same, so it may be difficult to have interactions. The game was created by [Gumix] and built entirely in JavaScript without using any other game engines.
