Description

Play in ASCII or graphics mode with device rotation. Navigate using taps or a command picker. Use gesture-based commands for actions. Explore procedurally generated dungeons. Collect items and manage inventory.

One of the deepest, richest gameplay found in any game on any platform, NetHack is a cult classic since its release in 1987, and has since spawned many descendants (including Diablo). gandreas software now presents this classic for the iPhone/iPod Touch: - Playable in either "ASCII" mode, or graphics mode (just rotate the device to switch) - Obscure keyboard commands replaced with a simple taps for movement, or a handy command picker. - Commands can also be activated by a unique gesture based command - want to search for a secret door? Swipe across the top of the play area (all the gestures are shown on the command picker for easy reference) - Graphics can be zoomed in/out via pinch - Completely faithful NetHack experience (all the levels, monsters, potions, scrolls, etc...) - iPhone UI - standard scrolling lists, pickers, etc... - Multiple tiles sets, from the classic to the sublime - Never see a keyboard unless you are doing something like typing in a name! Can you retrieve the Amulet of Yendor and return to the surface?
