Dronejam is now NPC Roadblock and refers to an NPC as a Broken Bridge.


* DroneJam: save enough friendly humans, and the halls will get so cluttered it's almost inevitable you'll kill one by mistake.

Added DiffLines:

''Hack, Slash, Loot'' is an indy {{Roguelike}} by David Williamson. The game is available from its [[http://www.hackslashloot.com/ website]] or several digital delivery services. The player chooses one of three characters (with 29 more available to be unlocked), and one of six adventures to dive right into.

What sets the game apart from other roguelikes is its simplicity. ''Hack, Slash, Loot'' has only five easily-understood stats, an uncomplicated damage system, and no inventory management: you carry only what you have equipped and use potions and scrolls when they're picked up. The entire game takes place on a single screen, with relevant information popping up when something is moused over. The entire game can be played with the mouse, with optional keyboard shortcuts. Despite all of this, it remains an engaging challenge.

The game is available for $10 or less depending on which site you buy from, and a demo version (restricted to six characters and two adventures, but otherwise fully-featured) can be downloaded from the developer's website.

* MagikarpPower: The Amazon. She starts out as a slightly weaker Archer with less equipment, but once you start to get a few kills and stack up some divine bonuses, she's near-unstoppable.
* WhipItGood: One of the melee weapons. They frequently have attributes that allow the wielder to move twice a turn, amking up for their low power.
