MU* Clients
In order to play Flexible Survival, you must either use the in-built MU* client on the webpage (requires Flash Player) or download one from a wide selection of MU* clients (preferred). The following list takes inspiration from a Wikipedia comparison listing; however, it truncates the list to trusted software and links directly to clients' websites.

Additional information
We knowingly omit TinTin++ because it has no dedicated site and the only official way to download it is via Sourceforge, which has been known to bundle adware into their installers. SimpleMU is only safely available via archive.org as the official site has been taken down.
For most users, MUSHclient is recommended. For Android users, we recommend Mukluk
