Hi,

Thanks Jude, when ever I think of top down games, it always makes me think
of an old 80s or 90s main stream game called gauntlet which I used to love
playing. I'll check out the info you sent and maybe give nethack a go.

Paul

I suggest you try two things to start your familiarization with nethack.
 First, google man nethack and read what comes up.  Next while in the
game, remember typing (?) brings up help.  rogue hack and nethack were
the first top down view video games written.  You look down through the
ceiling of whatever level you play on at any given time.  When ascii is
enabled all ascii characters have meanings in that game.

The official support for nethack is in usenet group
rec.games.roguelike.nethack.
