NetHack: A classic Rougelike game

A wonderful rougelike game, you go around through a dungeon looking for the Amulet of Yendor! Beware, it is no easy task, because death is permanent, and you -will- die a lot. But do not be discouraged, it is still quite the experience, with all the different routes you can take. Started more then 20 years ago, it is still in active development, and packed full of interesting features, such as the ability to tame wild animals and teach them how to shoplift, or learning the ways of wizardry, or even just quaffing random potions and seeing what happens. You can start hallucinating, levitate, turn into stone, have your potions of fruit juice boil and explode, read gravestones, and use wands to shoot magickal bullets that KICK ASS, and forget to pay attention to your dog and have it turn feral and eat you.

Give it a try.
