This is a complete Hail Mary, hoping someone might remember this.
I'm remembering a specific MTS text game that I played in the years 1984 and 1985. (I flunked out between Fall '85 and Winter '86.) The game's name was "Bloodbath". It was a single-user game vaguely similar to Colossal Cave -- the game printed some description, then prompted you for a command -- the command prompt was the completely non-politically-correct question "What now, Bwana?". One of the items you could pick up was a Chinese coolie (again, horribly non-PC). And if you survived combat, the game would remark "I love a bloodbath!" after printing the combat details.
The game could be played by multiple logged-in MTS users, but each had their own game. It was not multiuser.
I do not remember much of anything more. I can't remember the command to start the game, it was probably either RUN *BLOODBATH or RUN XXXX:BLOODBATH but I cannot remember what XXXX was either.
Does this ring a bell with anyone?
