What's it?

A fork of rogue-clone from Debian's bsdgames-nonfree package with bug fixes and enhancements.

Most Linux distributions, such as Debian and Ubuntu, come with a text-based dungeon crawling game called "Rogue", which is an open-source reimplementation of the original Rogue game.

This fork starts from the source code of this Rogue implementation with several improvements.

Changes

• Refactor save/load routines to prevent memory corruption.
• Added support for Windows.
• Removed inode-ID and timestamp verification for save files, allowing some flexibility with backup and restore operations.
• New wizard type which can be enabled by CTRL+w then input "VAX".
• New wizard command: CTRL+G to restore HP and stamina.
• Score file now stores all runs for all users, instead of just the top run for every user.
• New -u argument can check the save file and decide open a new game or load the previous save file if exists.

Must know

• Find the stairs and go down to the next level, locate the Amulet of Yendor, and bring it back safely.
• Use ? command to view the list of available commands.
• When there is no way to go, use s command to search for nearby hidden passages. There are many secret doors and paths to discover.

How to play?

• English: "A guide to the dungeons of doom".
• Chinese: 《中文手册》
