Bah, if not for Nethack there'd have been no ADOM.

BTW, in ADOM you can't choose to play Ironman. It is the norm, and the only possibility programmed in the game...

Same with Nethack. You die, game over.

Wonderful game, anyway. BTW, Illwinter links to ADOM, Dungeon Crawl AND Slash'em. I have thought I should try Crawl too. Has anyone here tried it? How it compares to ADOM?

I've played Dungeon Crawl, and think it stacks up quite favorably to ADOM. The way it handles line-of-sight is quite brilliant, actually.
