@swetland I first played hack on a PC in 1986 and it was mind-blowing :)

@masp Yeah, I also stumbled onto Hack/NetHack on the PC in the mid-80s and it was a very formative experience. I can't really play with graphical tiles because it still just feels wrong. Recently I've gotten into Caves of Qud (since their big UI/UX overhaul and Steam release), and it's been fun seeing a very modern take on both the mechanics and the setting (sci-fantasy-future rather than amalgam of classic fantasy past) of classic roguelikes.
