Hey, ppl.

NetHack is well known among the rogue-like style fans, yet it seems to be stuck on 3.4.3 since a long, long time. Anyhow, should you try ADOM:

and hack even more. It's really worth the visit. :Titan:

Oh! I almost forgot something for NetHack. It's a debug cheat (I didn't read all posts to see if it has been already posted here, sorry for any redundance) you will enjoy, if diggin' through the dungeons is simply not easy enough:
(Spoiler ahead!)
In command line (NetHack for DOS), instead of running 'nethack' with no arguments, try running 'nethack -d', that is, issue the '-d' (no quotes) argument. It actually stands for 'debug', I found that while peering on NH's source code. When the game begins, use the name 'wizard'. If everything's fine, you're now able to yield Ctrl+W to make wishes as well as a bunch of other type-and-use tricks. (I don't remember all the codes right now; do Ctrl+key and try'em all!) There's also a few # new commands if I do remember well.
That's it.

Cheers
