Publisher's Description
From Software Marketing Magic:
Nethack is a free rpg game. A popular single player dungeon exploration role playing game similar to Moria, Angband, Omega, Rogue, and other MUD's. Nethack was created back when GUIs were brand new and the text-based games ruled. Hack is one of the first to come out. Get a blast from the past and spend many a night guiding your character through dungeons, eating corpses, killing newts, raiding Dwarven mines and much more. The redrawn and random dungeons and countless types of enemies make it exciting with massive replay-ability. Find powerful potions, rings and scrolls and the special effects they produce. Naming your pets and tamed monsters makes Nethack an old school gem to be appreciated forever.

"OK for Training up for the PPC version"
Version: Nethack 3.4.3
Pros
Good training for the also free and relatively lovely Pocket PC WM6 version. (nethack.org) So that you can underatnd what's going on when you play that.
Cons
I agree with Spooky. This has had its time on the big screen.

"The time for this game has passed"
Version: Nethack 3.4.3
Cons
I am all for gaming nostalgia, and frequently play classic games, but this is taking it a little to far for my tastes. This is one piece of gaming history I would rather forget.
