If you're looking for a little old school rogue-liking that's pretty darned old yet remade, <A href="http://www.freewebs.com/drussell/RevivedHack.htm">RevivedHack</a> has hit <A href="http://www.freewebs.com/drussell/Download.htm">version 1.5</a>. Basically, this is a remake of the original <i>Hack</i>, which was the daddy of <A href="http://www.nethack.org">NetHack</a>. Here's what's changed:
<br>
<br>
<blockquote>For this release I fixed a bug that caused door Mimics to display improperly when hiding on a secret door. This bug did not affect gameplay aside from revealing the location of secret doors on very rare occasions.
<br>
<br>
There were other very minor bugfixes that are not worth mentioning here.
<br>
<br>
To enhance the gameplay a little RevivedHack now highlights changes to the status line.
<br>
<br>
Finally, I added a graphical crossfade effect when changing levels, and optimized the graphics routines.</blockquote>
<br>
<br>
If nothing else, it should give the players of <A href="http://www.nethack.org">NetHack</a> a chance to see the roots of the game they currently play.
