Syntax: help [topic]

The help command in MUME displays help files on various topics directly in-game. It is the fastest way to look up command syntax or mechanic details without leaving the game.

  • help — displays a top-level index of help topics.
  • help <topic> — displays the help file for the named topic (e.g., help consider, help cast).
  • help skills — lists all available skills and their descriptions.

This wiki vs in-game help

This wiki expands on the in-game help files with additional context, player tips, identified item lists, and guides that go beyond what the in-game system covers. Use help in-game for quick syntax reminders; use the wiki for strategic guidance and comprehensive references.
