Port of the classic roguelike dungeon exploration game NetHack.

Additional tile sets are available in separate package.

1.3.2
- Touchscreen movement
- Context-sensitive actions (auto open doors, etc)
- Movement fixed with 'number_pad' on

Excellent port of NetHack, and the context-sensitive option is good now too.

Rather nice port. And yeah, wish there was ',' on the main keyboard tab. :p

Unplayable. Needs a LOT of work.

Huge thanks for porting this. Would benefit from different movement key binding

Please, compile it to enable froyo's app2sd on the app and the tiles pack

Rogale na moim 'droidzie ^^ Na prawdę porządny pory /,,/

Classic game! This porting is great!

Superb port. Very impressive. Custom kb would probably be a useful enhancement for touchscreens.

It doesn't get better! Good work from the developer bringing this fantastic game to android. New update is absolutely fantastic; thank you very much.

I love it.

Needs better onscreen keyboard. Something like the HTC IME would be much better.

Solid!

Works great on my Samsung Galaxy S... even though "," (pickup command) is not on the first page of the program's softkeyboard.

near flawless port! well done! On my GalaxyS i've identifed 2 minor issues - game is very playable

As far as I can tell this is a flawless port. OSK can be frustrating and I wish it was easier to specify defaults.nh and Options e.g. auto_pickup...

I've never played nethack before this. It's surprisingly addictive and a perfect fit for a mobile phone. I pity the fool with no qwerty, though.

Brilliant ^_^

Needs App2SD support and the ability to kick!

Killed after 8 moves, that's Nethack alright!

I am overjoyed to finally be able to play Nethack on my Magic! Tnx :)

Just perfect. Thank you.

Brilliant port, but with no diagonal arrows on Droid2, touchscreen movement needs far better accuracy, e.g. these unintentional rests are killing me!

Great game. I think your character gets hungry too fast though, and there are pointless objects, like a potion of blindness. Whos going to drink that

Cant get over how awesome this port is. My hat's off to you, Fredrik.

Superb port .. playing this brought back happy memories of escaping with the Amulet of Yendor.

This is a great port of Nethack. Great on moto droid. The Amiga char. set is awesome! Customizabe keybindings is a nice touch. I set my Cam to Esc key

Look here, this is nethack, the best game ever made. Now its on your phone. The only thing that could make this better is autopickup exception.

It would be nice if arrow keys on keyboard (Backflip) could be used for movement.

With a G1, an excellent port.

Perfect with a physical keyboard. Moto Droid.

Excellent port!

To load save, enter the same name. Thanks for the port!

Can't figure out how to load a saved game. Any help?

Perfect now!

Great - thanks for the update

You went from 1 to 5 stars with this update! Thank you so much for fixing it for moment and thank you for tile support! Cheers!

Hey here is a tip. If the small bus rider who made Quest! swords and suck could make decent touch screen controls. You have no excuse for this joke

Perfect for the moto. Took a sec to realise that searchbutton= ctrl

Nice port of a fun game but needs to be able to map the dpad to numpad for commands like kick to work properly.

It's the game... Can't deny that. Wish the controls were customizeable. I feel for anyone who's playing this on a droid without a keyboard.Touch=Joke

Vanilla NetHack does not translate well to mobile devices. It needs an optional dedicated menu for each command.

I struggled with the keymappings on my droid. That made it difficult to play.

Tiles rock. On droid to kick press search button ( magnifying glass) then d

Needs custom on screen keyboard for diagonal movement and access to commands

Would be much better if you could move by tapping on the screen in the direction you want to go for phones w/o a keyboard. Implement this for 5 stars!

Really addicting.

Fun game. Been playing it for a few years on pc. For those who cant kick just turn on numpad and move with those. Then u can kick.

Can't kick doors on the droid. Would give 5 stars otherwise.

Need to be able to kick!

I've always loved NetHack, and this is an excellent port. Great work!

Wow, new update is amazing! You're a hero, thanks!

controls hard on a mobile phone

Brilliant! Good work from the developer bringing this fantastic game to android. New update is absolutely fantastic; thank you very much.

Five stars for being a classic

Onscreen movement keys direly needed. Also the current config file setup is garbage. You should be able to edit the config directly on the phone.

I loved Rogue as a kid, and I like this game. Can't wait to see it keep improving. Samsung Moment

Angband is better. Keyboard layout sucks and very hard to adjust. No way to diagonal move by screen touch. Graphics are only plus.

I loved Rogue as a kid, and I like this game. Needs explanation of keys and ability to use shift and fn key on slideout keyboard. Samsung Moment

Almost made 5s then i realized where's my fav door buster *kick* tried k. "Fn"k and #kick....

Music support and zoom features would be cool.

It seems fun and i would love to understand, the key's and tacktics. But i live it ovrer all

Easiest 5 stars given. Took a while on how to get the keyboard up on the dell streak. Other then that a bit more content then it is perfect

Wonderful port

Some serious old skool awesome. Ah, the memories!

Jetzt noch ein Dwarf Fortess und Minecraft Port :-D

Excellent port! Love the tiles too

5 stars for adding graphical tiles!

Awwww... the update trashed my high score tables, and maybe my bones files too. If I had a spare /oWishing I'd ask for menucolors. Still *****.

Wow. Easiest 5 stars I've ever given.

Has improved greatly in the last couple months. Awesome job by the porter.

Classic! The mother of all dungeon crawls, right on my phone, and the dev is still working to make it better. Tiles now? Awesome.

An awesome port of the classic for your phone! The interface, still cryptic, wouldn't have it any other way.

I love being able to play this on my phone!

Seems to be getting better and better!

Way too small to be any fun at all. Boo.

Wooohooo! Nethack ported to Android. Thanks for making this available.

Great on HTC desire

Fantastico, ottimo port!

All problems were fixed.

Dev updated and it is now playable on my phone! Working well so far, it would be cool if menucolors and paranoid_hit worked, and if messages wrapped.

Dev updated and it is now playable on my phone! Working well so far, a frontend to make config editing quick would be nice but not super neccesary

Good port, good features, interface kinda sucks on a touchscreen-only device.

Improving! Dev is fixing some rough edges

Very nice, I like the symbols used. One big complaint, the game does not recognize MENUCOLOR options!

I really want this to work! Unfortunately it crashes when I exit and return, has display bugs, and could use some ui enhancements.

Force closes on Droid as of 17 June 2010

Thank you!!!

Works perfectly on moto droid.

Everything works well !

touch movement would make this perfect. Other than that works great.

Great port! Keeps getting better & better with each update, although I'd like to be able to move by tapping quadrants of the screen.

Excellent! Even using Droid Incredible with a virtual keyboard.

I like it, it is awesome and now i dont have to ssh to me server to play it ;)

Another excellent update! The amiga character set is a real treat. 1000 thanks to the dev for this righteous port.

How do u open the door on the first lvl lol??

Excellent, love NetHack and glad it's on Android.

Crashes often on incredible

An der Steuerung muss man leider noch mal arbeiten.

Would be nice if it had commands instead of keys, since new players don't have this stuff memorized.

Glad to see this ported. Would be nice if screen autoscrolled to follow character.
