Well, after a few days of intensive playing I think I've noticed a few bugs.

Crash - while going down a flight of stairs, the game crashed with two 
	bombs.

Glitch - after a save, there appeared ~8 squares of multi-colored badness
	 indicators across the name, sleep and disk buttons. They cleared
	 up and normal play resumed after switching screens.

Oddness - Fireballs stopped working. This has happened to me twice. Both
	  times it was while entering the room with the spider critters.
	  I cast a fireball, it appears on the screen in front of me,
	  it disappears, a few seconds later the sound comes but no monster
	  appears to be affected and no visual effects. You can enter this
	  room from the room with the humanoid-blue-insect-people. However,
	  fireballs only seem to break when you enter the room from the 
	  opposite direction.

Any confirmation on these? 

Jon
