Tolkien's Middle-earth that has been continuously enhanced since fall '91. In MUME, players can explore and live in this meticulously crafted world during its late Third Age, and possibly join the epic War between the forces of the Dark Lord and the armies of the West. The action takes place before The Hobbit and after the loss of the One Ring by Sauron. The key of Erebor has just found by Gandalf in Dol Guldur and all the epic tales narrated in The Lord of the Rings may take place. MUME is traditionally played in a text-only mode but the MMapper graphical mud client represents the virtual world on a map thereby lowering the bar of entry for power-players and casual-players alike. When starting MMapper, you will be given the option to either use the built-in client (great for a quick start) or to connect your own MUD client to MMapper. Most of our power-players use the latter setup. ### Package name * mmapper --- ### License * GPL-2.0+ --- ### Last updated * 5 June 2026 - latest/stable * Yesterday - latest/edge --- ### Websites * [docs.mume.org](https://docs.mume.org/MMapper/ "https://docs.mume.org/MMapper/") --- ### Contact * [github.com/mume/mmapper/issues](https://github.com/mume/mmapper/issues "https://github.com/mume/mmapper/issues") --- ##### Report a Snap Store violation * [Report this Snap](https://snapcraft.io/install/mmapper/arch#report-snap-modal) --- ## Enable snaps on Arch Linux and install MUME Mapper Snaps are applications packaged with all their dependencies to run on all popular Linux distributions from a single build. They update automatically and roll back gracefully.

You can then install snap with the following: ``` git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/snapd.git cd snapd makepkg -si ``` Once installed, the *systemd* unit that manages the main snap communication socket needs to be enabled: ``` sudo systemctl enable --now snapd.socket ``` If [AppArmor](https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/AppArmor) is enabled in your system, enable the service which loads AppArmor profiles for snaps: ``` sudo systemctl enable --now snapd.apparmor.service ``` To enable *classic* snap support, enter the following to create a symbolic link between `/var/lib/snapd/snap` and `/snap`: ``` sudo ln -s /var/lib/snapd/snap /snap ``` Either log out and back in again, or restart your system, to ensure snap’s paths are updated correctly. ### Install MUME Mapper To install MUME Mapper, simply use the following command: ``` sudo snap install mmapper ``` ### Other popular snaps… [See more...](https://snapcraft.io/search?categories=featured) [See more in Featured](https://snapcraft.io/search?categories=featured) ### More things to do… #### [Get the snap store](https://snapcraft.io/snap-store) Browse and find snaps from the convenience of your desktop using the snap store snap. #### [Learn more about snaps](https://snapcraft.io/docs) Interested to find out more about snaps?
