NetHack vs Amber Halls

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?

Amber Halls is a palace filled with ancient artefacts and treasures. Dangerous monsters wander through the halls, but with the help of powerful items you'll be able to outsmart them. However, carrying items from room to room will prove challenging. Amber Halls is a tiny mix of roguelike and sokoban. If you like puzzle games that you can play forever you are going to love this. * Includes Daily Quest! A new map every day, the same for all players. Compete in the daily leaderboards!
