DESCRIPTION
Hack Lite is a dungeon adventure game in the style of Rogue, Hack,
Moria, etc. It uses a customizable graphical dungeon display. The
package includes a simple-to-use installation program, and a
"Preferences"-style configuration editor.
Plays great! Less killing!
NEW FEATURES
Many new objects, traps, monsters and ways to die have been added.
Saved games are now much smaller.
"Tournament mode" allows several players to compete for the highest
score playing in identical dungeons.
SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS
The distribution includes two versions of the game: a full version
and a limited version. The full version requires a meg of RAM. The
limited version will run in 512K, but of necessity many features are
not present in this version.
Hack Lite is compatible with AmigaDOS 1.3 and 2.0, and with both
NTSC and PAL.
