[drunkenmonkey]

Hmm... Fallout, maybe.

[Enchantermon]

Nothing that I've ever played, I know that.

[wilco64256]

I believe I know what it is.

[snabbott]

No clue.

[Lambonius]

Sounds like something out of a Rogue-like game.

[drunkenmonkey]

Was it King's Quest 6.

[kindofdoon]

I don't think so.

[snabbott]

I think Lambonius might be on to something, though.

[drunkenmonkey]

Starcraft game

[snabbott]

Hack?

[brlinton]

I'll have to give this one to  Lambonius... which "Hack" is correct, Hack is a derivative of Rogue. Message me your paypal info

[snabbott]

Good job, Lambonius!

[Cez]

wait, I'm lost, which game is this?

I know of a .hack

Congrats!

I'm guessing it's this; I know it's not the original Rogue, as you never have a dog companion in it.

I know of a .hack

Ha, yeah, so do I. That was the only one I knew of until I Googled it.

[Lambonius]

Haha...sweet.  One of the first computer games I ever played as a small child with my dad was Moria, one of the first Rogue-like games.  I'll send you a PM shortly.

If I understand correctly, the dog was added in Hack v. 1.0.3. It's funny - when Lambonius mentioned Rogue, I had a memory of playing a rogue-like game with a kitten companion. I think it may have been some version of Hack.

[Lambonius]

I still love me a good Rogue-like game.  Angband is a great one--kind of a Moria+.    They're surprisingly addictive, considering they don't really have real graphics.  But ah, you'd be surprised how far a little imagination can go when the gameplay is there to support it.  Man, I think I might just have to go download one to get my fix now.

I still play Rogue every once in a while, but it gets a little frustrating because it's nearly impossible to win. Still fun, though.
