zangband is a newer version of angband. There is also adom, which stands for "ancient domain of mystery." The best one though I think is omega, but it's not being maintained

There's a new version of Nethack? Oh thanks, there goes my work and studyings
Anyway, do not play NH with Falcon's Eye. It won't make games any better, only add some unnecessary eye candy and you can't see the whole level at once. What's wrong with pure ASCII?

for the Z(elazny) more complex version.
BTW, I think the latest release is horrible, go for a more stable one.

Tell me about it. The best plan seems to be to play safe untill you can identify potions, weapons etc, and to always attack with the bow/other ranged weapon if you can. I still can't get deeper than the 9th level, though, so I'm missing something.
Practice needed I think.

Speaking of Nethack- has anyone else noticed you can't #enhance skills if they happen to be on the second page? Maybe I am doing something wrong, but I can't even look at the second page of skills if I have a skill to #enhance on that page.
If you are too cautious you will end up too weak. Trying on lots of armor is especially important. For example, a lot of dwarves have really good items, like +2 helmets or +1 iron boots, that really boost your armor class and make you live longer in the early game. Spellcasters can use helmets without any penalty IIRC. If it ends up cursed, you can pray to get rid of it. Assuming you don´t pray for otehr things, you can usually pray safely whenever you pick up a cursed item. And of course, yo ucan use an alter or your pet to tell if it is cursed in teh first place, thus avoiding even this minor problem.
My main complaint about Nethack is that shops are absolutely useless, since they don´t identify the stuff for you. You just have a pile of random junk to pick up and pay for, with no clue what the potions or scrolls do unless you have already identified them. That´s just stupid. This game needs to start you in a town, where you can buy useful stuff, and you should know what the shops are selling.

See???!
Being the items on sale just objects on the floor, you don't know what you get just as when you pick an object in any other room. I hardly call this a "shop", that's rather a "bargain cave"....
Not only this, but to SEE what's there you have to *walk* over objects, or to *look* for them (and the "look" function itself is much more cumbersome in NetHack than in Angband), rathern than *read a damn simple LIST of products*!
Your last comment can easily be summarised in one word: ANGBAND.

Drop all items you haven't identified on it. Cursed items will give a black flash, and when you pick them up, their b/u/c status is revealed on inventory.

Does that work on altars of different alignment?
ACK!
Don't try to confuse the issue with half-truths and gorilla dust!
