NetHack was first released over 30 years ago and is still being maintained today! The open source fantasy roguelike lets you explore vast dungeons in search of adventure, treasure and glory. One of the OG dungeon crawlers it features permadeath, procedural-generated dungeons and almost uncountable ways to interact with the world. Seriously. There are separate buttons for drinking and eating! It also features a good amount of humor compared to other games of the era like the original Rogue (hence the name rogue-like!).
As for HeMakesMePlay, we are a gaming channel focused on slow-paced gameplay to facilitate extensive descriptions and reading out loud for the benefit of Marius, who is blind. Since we all enjoy discussions on strategy and game design, they make frequent appearances in our videos.
If you got feedback or want to congratulate René and Marius on their first useful artifact, feel free to write us a comment! We love those.
