"About the Game

Battle Diggles, Find Loot, Sacrifice Lutefisk to the Lutefisk God!

Long ago, the Dark Lord Dredmor was bound in the darkest dungeons
beneath the earth by great and mighty heroes. Centuries later, the
magical bonds that hold him in place are loosening and his power grows
ever stronger. The land cries out for a new hero, a powerful warrior
or a mystic wizard like those spoken of in the prophecies of yore.

What they have, unfortunately, is you...

Step into the Dungeons of Dredmor! Embrace your destiny! Face evil of
the likes the world has never known - the terrifying Swarmies, the
undulating Thrusties, and the adoreable nest-building Diggles. Worship
Inconsequentia, the Goddess of Pointless Sidequests, or try your luck
as a devotee of the nameless Lutefisk God. Cast powerful magic learned
from the dark business warlocks of the school of Necronomiconomics, or
summon the Viking Runes of your ancestors to blast your foes with
thunder and lightning! Discover the power that can be had by wielding
a bizarre armament of devastating weaponry such as the
Interdimensional Axe, the Plastic Ring, and the Invisible Shield (if
you can remember where you left it). Wield shoes decorated by the
Dwarven Glittersmiths, all of whom have now committed suicide because
of their shame, and embrace the joys of destroying giant moustache-
wielding brick demons with a mace decorated with tawdry, delicious
bacon.

While you’re at it, be prepared to die. A lot. In hideous, screaming
pain that makes you throw your keyboard out the window.

The Dungeons of Dredmor await. Are you ready for them?
Key features:

    -Classic Roguelike gameplay with the sweet, refreshing taste of
point-and-click interfaces. No longer must you press CTRL-ALT-SHIFT-x
to drink a potion.
   - Randomly generated dungeons entice you with the sweet, sweet
promises of treasure and … things.
    -Old-school pixel goodness. Face lovingly hand-animated monsters
and enjoy the great taste of beautiful, individually rendered items on
top of a sea of gorgeous, potent tile-work.
    -Wield the awesome power of the Anvil of Krong, lest it wield you!
    -Incredibly complicated crafting system! Wield relics of the Great
Elven/Dwarven conflict; grind down ingots to make powdered aluminum
and shove it directly up your nostrils!
     -Hordes of monsters never-before-seen in a video game!
     -Deploy cunning traps to defeat your foes!
    -Infinite replay value: choose from a selection of mind-boggling
