Mud is multi user dungeon. So a client will use a given game's telnet link so that you can play, they are text based. A lot of them offer ports to play using the browser but that usually isn't very good for screen readers, they can get slow and cumbersome, and that can be deadly if you are fighting another player or mob, which are game generated characters. That is if you are playing a mud that involves fighting, others are puzzles etc. All kinds of different games though. Keep in mind though the term dungeon is sort of a lose term because most games are worlds, some are multi world. Or different eras in time of the same world.
The client is called Mudder, it has quite a log list of games to link to already inside it, some of them I've played in before, but a lot of them I had never heard of, so there's some exploring in my future *lol*.
