I could tell you how to learn Perl. But as for telling you how to create the game you'd like to make is way beyond the scope of PM.
The first thing you need to do is get a book. I recomend Learning Perl from O'Reilly written by Randal L Schwartz (merlyn) and Tom Christiansen. Read through the book and get an understanding of the basics of perl. You might also like to goto the Tutorials section of PM and read through those as well. Once you have the basics down, then you can create the scripts yourself.
Something as big as what your asking for isn't going to be picked up by someone and done for free. The size, scale and magnitude of a game takes a lot of thought, preparation, knowlege and skill to create it. I'm not trying to dissuade you from trying to create what you'd like to do. I'm letting you know what you have ahead of you.
Good luck,

Ha ha! This really cracks me up! It's not the H-word, but a "Request For Cloning" :-)
It's a pretty accurate description of the features of the Alien Adoption Agency
Of course, I should make an Ork 'Omeless Orkanisation some time, but not until I finish Mapster::TNG.
Update: Hey, wait a minute, you didn't mention the maze in AAA! That's my favourite! ;-)

Okay, I'll be a good monk, and shove aside my irony for a while and give you some useful hints. You'll need these skills and/or programs and/or hardware/services to do what you want:
- Hosting: You need a computer with a good internet connection to host your game
- Apache: webserver, needs to be setup correctly
- CGI: the skill
- Perl: interpreter, and skill
- Database: e.g. MySQL - server and skill
- HTML: skill
Obviously, this is not a task for the faint-hearted.

I think you've confused PerlMonks with these guys. | [reply] |
a bank(that gives 2.5 interest each day)
Now, if you need help creating a real-world bank that gives
2.5% interest each day, drop me a line. THAT would interest
me, as it were.
