Ascend to the status of demigod(-dess) this IAP in Nethack! Nethack is a game where you are the @ and you push j to go south, where you are killed by a newt. If you enjoyed Diablo but it was much too easy, or enjoyed adventure games but want something more tactical, Nethack is for you. In four simple classes, members of MIT's fourth-in-the-world Nethack team (really!) will teach you to handle everything from lichen (F) to arch-liches (purple L).
