I like MUDs, and this is a nifty client that works in Linux, Windows, whatever. It's a really slick client, (hence the 10/10). No tacked-on bells/whistles like macro writers or map-savers, but those functions tend to detract from a game anyway.
I do, however, have some questions about the MUD in general. The Wiki seems to be quite incomplete. Several red links, and several topics undocumented. However, almost all helpfiles reference the wiki.
I want to know how to drink the crimson potion, but it says that the crimson is closed, but when I try to open crimson, it says crimson isn't a container, and so I try to get ye flask and it says you can not get ye flask, and I just have to sit there and wonder why.
Other than that, I like the use of NPCs in puzzles, it's a nice way to add color to a simple game, and it really draws me in. But now I'm reviewing the game, which isn't on Newgrounds.
Solid client, like that it's in flash, wouldn't change a thing.

Author's Response:
The wiki is a work in progress and relatively new. It is good for finding many answers, but is not quite as comprehensive as the in-game help system.
To drink potions, use the quaff command. In this case, entering "quaff crimson" should work.
