The Date is March 15, 3019 Third Age.

Sauron has brought war to the Free People of Middle-earth. On the field of the Pelennor, at the gates of the great city of Minas Tirith, the battle of our time is being fought. Lothlorien, Thranduil's Kingdom, Dale and Erebor are also under siege.

Sauron will not stop until all of Middle-earth is his. Join him, or stand with those who are against him. The choice is yours!


The Two Towers MUD is a free Multiplayer Online Roleplaying Game set entirely within Tolkien's world of Middle-earth, at the time of 'Lord of the Rings'. We have extensively re-created the lands of Middle-earth in a rich text environment, from Mithlond to Mordor and the lands of Harad beyond. With over 100,000 rooms and always growing, The Two Towers is a richly developed and highly interactive world. There are hundreds of quests, with rewards great and small, for you to discover.

The Two Towers has an active community of players from around the world who come together to play online. Players join together to create guilds, raid enemy lands, and more.

Online continuously since 1994, The Two Towers is one of the longest running multiplayer games on the internet and is maintained by a staff of hardworking volunteers who love Tolkien and multiplayer gaming.

Recent T2T Updates

Below is a list of the most recent 20 updates made on The Two Towers by our dedicated volunteer coders.

DateUpdaterUpdate Text
12/09/24VildoranWhen trying to wield a potential dual-wieldable weapon while wearing a large shield, you will now switch to wielding that weapon instead of receiving a failure.
12/06/24OsseSeveral shopkeepers in West Arda (in Bree, Rivendell and Belegost) have seen fit to add basic bows to their standard stocked inventory, much to the delight of young archers. Also, Brand and Glimdan now will offer these bows as a reward option to young adventurers who help them with a problem in their cellars.
12/06/24OsseDue to the recent seismic activity in the Grey Mountains aforementioned, Gwaihir's giant eagles have had to shift their first landing point slightly eastward when bearing riders.
12/06/24OsseResidents of Framsburg have reported feeling the rumblings of a major earthquake to their north last night; first reports indicate that the seismic activity has caused a change to the landscape, and that the Anduin and Forest Rivers now share a small but navigable connection through a valley of the Grey Mountains.
11/25/24VildoranIt's now possible to wear two items for the 'wrist' armour slot.
11/25/24VildoranIt's now possible to specify which weapon you'd like to backstab with when dual-wielding.
11/14/24LungorthinThe 'moo' emote has been corrected, and the non-targeted version of the emote has been updated.
11/12/24LungorthinThe necromancers of Asturasartes have tired of losing students to the treacherous swamps surrounding their school. For this reason they have extended the swamp's boardwalk to reach them, making 'travelto' possible between Asturasartes and the surrounding towns.
11/08/24LungorthinBree signpost is now actually a signpost. It has also had a minor face lift.
10/12/24VildoranThe 'appraise' command can now be used in combat.
10/01/24LungorthinThe newest expansion to the game, Azanulbizar, also known as The Depths of Moria, is now live for testing throughout the month while the Harvest festival is ongoing. To test the area just enter the golden portal located in the Harvest festival and begin testing. Enjoy!
09/08/24LungorthinWhen slinging bows with nocked arrows, the arrows will now be automatically placed in the wielder's quivers, as long as there is space available, rather than being placed in hands or dropped. Additionally, it is now possible to sling bows with nocked arrows even if you are not wearing a quiver.
09/05/24LungorthinThe set of mithril tools from Moria now requires being worn in order to gain its beneficial effects in repairs.
09/01/24LungorthinWhen auctioning packages and opting to input 'all' to place all one's equipment into the package, autoloading items are now excluded.
09/01/24LungorthinTagging wielded weapons with 'tag all using' will now also tag off-hand wielded weapons.
08/29/24LungorthinA particularly evil-oriented trainer in the region of Rhun will now train individuals of all allegiances in Khuzdul, if they are willing to pay for such a rare skill.
08/26/24LungorthinAuctioneers now require each new bid after the initial bid on an item to be at least 10 gold or 5% higher than the current standing bid, whichever value is higher.
08/06/24VildoranWe've fixed a bug with the mithril dagger from Mordor and it now has a significantly better backstab.
08/06/24LungorthinThe west gate of Moria's ascii art has been replaced with an updated version. Kudos to our very own Thulin for supplying this marvelous improvement!
07/25/24OsseYou can now be like Osse and 'hrmph' at others, or the world in general.
