GemStone IV is a text-based game built on Simutronics’ proprietary engine, the IFE (Interactive Fiction Engine). This engine is capable of changing nearly any aspect of the game on the fly which allows updates without the necessity for downtime, a problem which plagues many graphical RPGs. Due to the use of the IFE , GemStone is rarely taken offline, giving a 24-hour uptime cycle aside from the occasional game crash (Wikipedia).

I too am a Gemstone fan. I love to explore the many roads, and pathways around the world and also fight demons and such, and try my skills against them
