Journey to the West, also known as "Journey to the West: New Era" (xiyouji.org, running since ~1998), a venerable old-school MudOS mudlib set in the mythological world of Wu Cheng'en's classic novel -- the Thirty-Three Heavens, the Peach Garden, Penglai, and the Heavenly Palace are all real, built zones. Its registration flow includes an age-declaration prompt stating it "does not welcome primary/secondary school players" — an original design choice, not a bug. A file-level check this pass found this collection's own xyj2000f is effectively the same archive at a different fix-stage (over 99% of its ~8,700 files byte-identical, the rest cosmetic or later bugfix-comment differences) -- not just a similarly-named sibling. More surprisingly, this lib's map/NPC file layout is also reused almost path-for-path (about 99.5% of files, though only a minority remain byte-identical content) in sibling archives xyj2006n and xyj20032, even though those two run entirely different core engines (AKAI/Tomud and the unrelated "Three Realms" codebase respectively) -- e.g. the young monk NPC 疥顶小僧 and the bridge scene 泾水桥 are word-for-word identical across all of them. That makes this lib's map the closest surviving "clean" copy of an original Xiyouji archive reused as a foundation across at least four titles in this collection. A live combat test against 疥顶小僧 on Vermillion Bird Street ran the standard death/revival flow through Judge Cui Jue's court to a countryside inn.

## Run natively with FluffOS

1. Build a current FluffOS driver from https://github.com/fluffos/fluffos
   (native `build` / `build-debug`; see that repo's docs).
2. Download and unzip `xyj2000.zip` from the URL above (or clone
   `https://github.com/fluffos/mudlibs` and use `libs/xyj2000/`).
3. From the unzipped lib directory, ensure `config.fluffos` points
   `mudlib directory` at this tree (the checked-in file may contain a
   maintainer-local absolute path — edit it to your extract path).
4. Start the driver:

```bash
/path/to/fluffos/build/src/driver config.fluffos
```

5. Connect a UTF-8 MUD client to `127.0.0.1:40155`.
