Nah, there's windows versions of nethack, the problem is that windows screen readers don't work the same way dos screen readers do, so tracking the cursor, and checking what's around you on the screen is way harder than it should be on a windows machine. Interstingly enough, linux screen readers suffer from the same issue, so no joy there either. It's possible to use it, it's just a major pain, and takes more effor than it's worth.
