HamQuest is a simple Rogue-like based on the rules of the HeroQuest board game. It strips everything down to just the movement keys and an attack/defend toggle, but updates the graphics from the standard ASCII affair. If Rogue is a 12oz steak with all the trimmings this is a slice of low-fat bacon.
Fans of the genre may find this a bit too simplistic, but if you don’t want to invest a major portion of your life building up a half-elven level 31 wizard only to be struck down by the Balrog with one blow then this maybe more your style. It’s still being updated with new features, so read your scrolls of teleport, get over to the forum and show some support.
