:--------------:|:-------:---------------
[silvren.com][1] | Shell account | Free for MU* | Private hobby provider so don't assume backups
or expect immediate support. To ask for an account, connect with a MUD client to iweb.localecho.net,
port 4201 and ask for "Jarin".
[Digital Ocean][2] | VPS | $5/month | You can get a $50 credit if you use the referral link
https://m.do.co/c/8f64fec2670c - if you do, once you've had it long enough to have paid $25 we will
get that as a referral bonus to help Evennia development.
[Amazon Web services][3] | Cloud | ~$5/month / on-demand | Free Tier first 12 months. Regions
available around the globe.
[Amazon Lightsail][9] | Cloud | $5/month | Free first month. AWS's new "fixed cost" offering.
[Genesis MUD hosting][4] | Shell account | $8/month | Dedicated MUD host with very limited memory
offerings. As for 2017, runs a 13 years old Python version (2.4) so you'd need to either convince
them to update or compile yourself. Note that Evennia needs *at least* the "Deluxe" package (50MB
RAM) and probably *a lot* higher for a production game. This host is *not* recommended for Evennia.
[Host1Plus][5] | VPS & Cloud | $4/month | $4-$8/month depending on length of sign-up period.
[Scaleway][6] | Cloud | €3/month / on-demand | EU based (Paris, Amsterdam). Smallest option
provides 2GB RAM.
[Prgmr][10] | VPS | $5/month | 1 month free with a year prepay. You likely want some experience with
servers with this option as they don't have a lot of support.
