I used this a few times. It sucked and made my 300 baud connection to QLink even slower

zatojones - 2008-08-21 No that was the good old days when furries were too ashamed to openly display their perverted hobby.

Oh wow, as if I needed another reason to hate Lucasfilm, apparently they also invented mmorpurgers.

I like how they make it seem all pleasant, but in reality it'd be like being stuck in a YouTube comments page. "You suck LULZ"

An excellent article on this game, and a fascinating read for anyone interested in MMO gaming in general: (EARLY GRIEFING!)

Syd Midnight - 2008-08-22 Thx for the link.. I remember when it first came out, and the usual over-optimistic technophiles were predicting in-game cults and religions. Not for another 15 years!
There's only so much you could do at 300 baud, where data transfer was a great deal slower than reading speed.

Only one year away from Purple Tentacle and Dr. Ed.

Cube - 2008-08-21 It looks like it uses the same engine as the C64 game Labyrinth.

A sort of precursor to the Sims of sort. Never even heard of it before. Nice find.

Looks mind-numbingly boring and uneventful. Where is the flash version of this I can play for free?

I played a later 1988 version called Club Caribe. It was expensive and not very fun because of the limitations of the hardware.
I had tried it because Lucasfilm Games had produced some of my favorite titles; Rescue on Fractalus, The Eidolon, Koronis Rift, Maniac Mansion, these were all awesome, ground-breaking games.
I guess Habitat was just ahead of its time and the available technology.
