- NetHack 3.6.0:
- Downloads
Nethack was created back when GUIs were brand new and the text-based games ruled. Hack is one of the first to come out. Get a blast from the past and spend many a night guiding your character. At the time of this release, NetHack 3.6 has been tested to run/compile on: Intel Pentium or better (or clone) running Linux, BSDI, or Windows (7 through 10) Intel 80386 or greater (or clone) boxes running Linux, or BSDI Mac OS X 10.9 OpenVMS (aka VMS) V8.4 on Alpha and on Integrity/Itanium/IA64 Previous versions of NetHack were tested and known to run on the following systems, but it is unknown if they can still build and execute NetHack 3.6: Apple Macintosh running MacOS 7.5 or higher. NetHack is a single player dungeon exploration game using a classical text based interface. Unlike many other dungeon crawlers, the emphasis in NetHack is on discovering the detail of the dungeon and not simply killing everything in sight - in fact, killing everything in sight is a good way to die quickly.
The latest version of NetHack is 3.4 on Mac Informer. It is a perfect match for Adventure in the Games category. The app is developed by Bryce Cogswell. NetHack - Falcon's Eye enhances the classic roguelike game NetHack with isometric high-res graphics, digitized effects, symphonic music and an intuitive mouse-driven interface, yet retains all the original.
NetHack 3.6.0 released on December 8, 2015. Download it here!
