	NetHack: review, discussion, hints, tips and walkthrough at Jay is Games
		Nethack is a classic singl-player (randomly generated) dungeon exploration game that runs on a wide variety of platforms, and yet each implementation uses the same game engine.
		Nethack is one of the oldest games still being developed, and some consider it to be the greatest game ever made.
		Nethack is frequently acclaimed by players as one of the finest games ever designed, not so much for its casual look, but for its incredibly intricate gameplay, clever sense of humor and epic scope.

		NetHack is a very difficult game, especially for players who lack knowledge of Dungeons and Dragons and avoid reading the spoilers.
		NetHack is a complicated game, and it can be difficult to understand all the details of how it works.
		However, NetHack is very much an exploration and discovery game, and many people prefer to avoid reading spoilers, or at least to wait to read them until they have a hunch about how a certain part of the game works and want confirmation.

		A kind user has contributed glyphs for new characters used in Nethack 3.4 (tree, grave, and iron bars), and a new config file for them.
		But because of limitations of drawing the walls (nethack doesn't know which side of a wall is the room and which is unexplored) I couldn't draw all the edges of the grid.
		At that resolution, nethack is too tall, but not too wide, so you can resize it to fit and then shrink the message area by hand until everything looks right.

	NetHack Time Spoiler (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		NetHack is aware of the time in the real world (or, at least, what it's told about it by your system clock); certain particular times have effects on gameplay.
		The date is only checked when the game is started or restored; if you keep playing without saving, you'll continue to see the effects even after the relevant period has passed (or not see the effects even though it has been reached).
		NetHack divides the month into eight phases of three or four days each; thus the full and new moon will be reported for a rather longer time than your calendar might depict.

		There's some kind of magic in NetHack, a world so huge and complex that every game is completely different, where each new item can twist the gameplay in new directions.
		NetHack is an ascii-adventure game (or "Rogue-Like" game, as we'll see below) where your character is an intrepid dungeon explorer and you've got to descend into the bowels of a randomly-generated, mazelike empire of tunnels -- complete with villages and shops and fortresses in the lower levels.
		The hundreds of different items all interact with each other in surprising ways, and with randomly generated dungeons, the game is never the same place twice.

		No graphics, no sound, no razzle-dazzle -- but Nethack is still one of the finest gaming experiences the computing world has to offer.
		After all, Nethack has been around for nearly 15 years and doesn't require a soundcard, a 3D graphics card or even a VGA monitor.
		And while open-source advocates are more likely to vaunt the movement's ability to transform desktop and network computing, this endearingly pokey dungeon adventure is perhaps its most accessible exemplar, demonstrating how its core virtues seem to work even in the unlikely realm of computer gaming.

		But beware of the capital "D," that represents a dragon...) Nethack has been in development for over 15 years, and because it still has no graphics, nearly every line of code ever added is pure gameplay.

		The purpose of the tournament mode is to allow people to play Nethack from the same starting point and see who does better.
		When the dungeon levels are generated, the difficulty is adjusted to approximate the experience level a typical character is likely to have when first entering that dungeon level.
		These are for Tournament Patch version 0.1 on Nethack 3.4.1, and will almost certainly change if and when platform-independent seeds are implemented or the patch is revised or applied to any other Nethack version.

		NetHack is a single player dungeon exploration game that runs on a wide variety of computer systems, with a variety of graphical and text interfaces all using the same game engine.
		Unlike many other Dungeons and Dragons-inspired games, the emphasis in NetHack is on discovering the detail of the dungeon and not simply killing everything in sight - in fact, killing everything in sight is a good way to die quickly.
		Each game presents a different landscape - the random number generator provides an essentially unlimited number of variations of the dungeon and its denizens to be discovered by the player in one of a number of characters: you can pick your race, your role, and your gender.
