Short: Zangband 2.2.8 - Roguelike solo RPG Author: Many, including Bablos Uploader: Bablos Version: 2.2.8 Type: game/role Requires: KS1.3, 1.4Mb RAM. Hard Drive recommended. Zangband is a variant of Angband, which is a single player role playing game. You choose a race and a class, then roll up statistics to describe your various abilities. Then you're unleashed upon the dungeons of Angband, ultimately dropping to dungeon level 100 and trying your damndest to kill The Serpent of Chaos. Along the way you encounter a myriad of creatures and uniques to hinder your progress, and objects and artifacts to help you achieve your goals. Angband is loosely based on the works of JRR Tolkien, and had the game Rogue as an ancestor, hence the term 'roguelike' that is encountered in this guide and many other documents relating to Angband and it's variants. Zangband is adapted from Roger Zelazny's 'Amber' universe. Angband is constantly under development, and has been since it came out in its most basic form back in 1985. Zangband has an expanded magic system, talking uniques, lots of extra weird monsters and vaults and all sorts of other stuff. I won't spoil it for you! Zangband is based upon Angband 2.8.1. If you've never played Angband before, try that first; Zangband is harder than 'vanilla' Angband. Requirements You'll need at *least* this to run Zangband (and Angband, for that matter) o Kickstart 1.3 o 1.4 Mb of memory o 68000 - a faster processor is nice, but by no means necessary. Recommended Configuration This is what I'd recommend to get the most out of Zangband: o Kickstart 3.0 or better o 2Mb of memory o 68020 or better. ============================= Archive contents ============================= Original Packed Ratio Date Time Name -------- ------- ----- --------- -------- ------------- 0 0 0.0% 09-Oct-99 17:07:06 +scores.raw 0 0 0.0% 17-Feb-00 10:23:14 + 0 0 0.0% 17-Feb-00 10:23:14 + 27540 7930 71.2% 23-Dec-99 01:19:38 +a_info.txt 10386 3465 66.6% 23-Dec-99 01:19:40 +e_info.txt 6701 2067 69.1% 23-Dec-99 01:19:40 +f_info.txt 49748 14829 70.1% 23-Dec-99 01:19:40 +k_info.txt 640 282 55.9% 23-Dec-99 01:19:40 +misc.txt 1098 554 49.5% 23-Dec-99 01:19:40 +q0000001.txt 2856 827 71.0% 23-Dec-99 01:19:40 +q0000002.txt 1359 678 50.1% 23-Dec-99 01:19:40 +q0000003.txt 3055 842 72.4% 23-Dec-99 01:19:40 +q0000004.txt 1238 639 48.3% 23-Dec-99 01:19:42 +q0000005.txt 677 357 47.2% 23-Dec-99 01:19:42 +q0000006.txt 542 332 38.7% 23-Dec-99 01:19:42 +q0000007.txt 1562 734 53.0% 23-Dec-99 01:19:42 +q0000019.txt 3229 1218 62.2% 23-Dec-99 01:19:42 +q0000020.txt 3602 1284 64.3% 23-Dec-99 01:19:42 +q0000021.txt 2915 923 68.3% 23-Dec-99 01:19:42 +q0000022.txt 3803 1147 69.8% 23-Dec-99 01:19:42 +q0000023.txt 5891 2109 64.1% 23-Dec-99 01:19:42 +q0000027.txt 3814 1492 60.8% 23-Dec-99 01:19:44 +q0000028.txt 6686 1793 73.1% 23-Dec-99 01:19:44 +q00000ms.txt 2003 778 61.1% 23-Dec-99 01:19:44 +q000chao.txt 4395 1223 72.1% 23-Dec-99 01:19:44 +q000dekn.txt 3596 1163 67.6% 23-Dec-99 01:19:44 +q000eric.txt 727 443 39.0% 23-Dec-99 01:19:44 +q000lyeh.txt 2110 802 61.9% 23-Dec-99 01:19:44 +q000natu.txt 1969 751 61.8% 23-Dec-99 01:19:44 +q000sorc.txt 2038 875 57.0% 23-Dec-99 01:19:44 +q00water.txt 4959 1584 68.0% 23-Dec-99 01:19:46 +q0clone0.txt 3271 1149 64.8% 23-Dec-99 01:19:46 +q0fields.txt 1654 785 52.5% 23-Dec-99 01:19:46 +q0thief1.txt 1708 742 56.5% 23-Dec-99 01:19:46 +q0thief2.txt 1993 775 61.1% 23-Dec-99 01:19:46 +q0willow.txt 1558 718 53.9% 23-Dec-99 01:19:46 +qdarkelf.txt 2282 1103 51.6% 23-Dec-99 01:19:46 +qhaunted.txt 2119 716 66.2% 23-Dec-99 01:19:46 +q_info.txt 426 289 32.1% 23-Dec-99 01:19:46 +q_oberon.txt 644 361 43.9% 23-Dec-99 01:19:48 +q_pref.txt 2189 437 80.0% 23-Dec-99 01:19:48 +q_random.txt 468 315 32.6% 23-Dec-99 01:19:48 +q_serpen.txt 729 427 41.4% 23-Dec-99 01:19:48 +q_warg.txt 364588 110965 69.5% 23-Dec-99 01:19:50 +r_info.txt 21542 2746 87.2% 23-Dec-99 01:19:50 +t0000001.txt 20851 2968 85.7% 23-Dec-99 01:19:50 +t0000002.txt 23361 4428 81.0% 23-Dec-99 01:19:50 +t0000003.txt 18295 4592 74.9% 23-Dec-99 01:19:50 +t0000004.txt 27343 1546 94.3% 23-Dec-99 01:19:52 +t0000005.txt 1776 290 83.6% 23-Dec-99 01:19:52 +t_basic.txt 532 251 52.8% 23-Dec-99 01:19:52 +t_info.txt 24532 3728 84.8% 23-Dec-99 01:19:52 +t_lite.txt 799 450 43.6% 23-Dec-99 01:19:52 +t_pref.txt 103396 19243 81.3% 23-Dec-99 01:19:52 +v_info.txt 1118 551 50.7% 23-Dec-99 01:19:54 +w_info.txt 622 344 44.6% 23-Dec-99 01:19:24 +a_cursed.txt 981 516 47.4% 23-Dec-99 01:19:24 +a_high.txt 1096 615 43.8% 23-Dec-99 01:19:24 +a_low.txt 1069 587 45.0% 23-Dec-99 01:19:26 +a_med.txt 144 96 33.3% 23-Dec-99 01:19:26 +chainswd.txt 826 424 48.6% 23-Dec-99 01:19:26 +crime.txt 1525 188 87.6% 23-Dec-99 01:19:26 +dead.txt 10396 4993 51.9% 23-Dec-99 01:19:26 +death.txt 947 481 49.2% 23-Dec-99 01:19:26 +elvish.txt 1722 939 45.4% 23-Dec-99 01:19:26 +error.txt 12209 5605 54.0% 23-Dec-99 01:19:26 +mondeath.txt 11367 5491 51.6% 23-Dec-99 01:19:26 +monfear.txt 5333 2715 49.0% 23-Dec-99 01:19:28 +monfrien.txt 17304 8043 53.5% 23-Dec-99 01:19:28 +monspeak.txt 826 386 53.2% 23-Dec-99 01:19:28 +news.txt 2117 854 59.6% 09-Oct-99 16:21:58 +readme!
