Using the SSH "remote client" app, you can play the fantastic "Dungeon Crawl" roguelike game. In my opinion, probably one of the best rogue-likes I have played.

I haven't played Dungeon Crawl in years... on any platform. Nice to see its still being developed... one game that I liked was ADOM. looks like there is a desire by some to resurrect this game to update, bugfix, and maybe finish it?

yeah, there's been talk of updating ADOM. I always had a hard time getting into that one. I played Angband and Crawl quite a lot.

I guess once you learn one arcane, complicated interface, it's harder to "unlearn" one :)

How many old rogue-likes run on Morph anyways? I know of Nethack and an old version of Angband. Anything else out there?

I'm a big fan of the DOOM rogue like.

Pretty much all the Bablos Amiga ports will run on Morphos fine. I was stuck in Zangband for years.. all the variants I used on my A3000 worked right away on my PegII. I also played Nethack an old version of Crawl and of course ADOM... seems. Like I'm missing something though...

I just wish there was a newer version of Angband for MOS. Maybe some day :)

they are made for Morphos.

yeah, I saw those (I prefer the ASCII version) but they are all 3.0.6, while the most recent version is 3.3.2 for linux/windows

Yeah... maybe we can get someone to compile a newer version?

Haven't been on this site in along time... this conversation has led me to look into some old games (on vacation this week) Just started playing TOME again... Names changed and there have been a ton of updates since the Amiga version from almost 10 years ago... this would be a great one to get compiled!!!

TOME changed a lot from it's origins, from what I can tell. THe current version when I played it on linux is quite interesting. Tons of skills and abilities. I ended up liking it less than Crawl or Angband but its very cool, and its super polished.

yeah very polished... if I had the skill i would try to port this... maybe neutral, so all the Amiga flavors could use it? I should try to get back into programming... was never strong at C, but now that I have some time (lost hours at work) I might be able to actually learn something!

I'd love to help ,but I have basically zero programming skills. I've compiled a few things from source code in linux and that's about it. If there was a bounty or something, I'd cough up though.
