  Played it for the first time recently! Unfortunately it seems to have some stability problems, it doesn’t launch saves for me so I’m on hiatus

    That is strange. Which version are you playing? 5.0 was recently released, it may have bugs but I don’t think that’s one of them?

    What platform are you playing on? At the moment the main way to play it on Linux distributions is to compile it yourself.

      Correction: I have been playing HackNet! My bad, i misread your post. Clearly we need more names for cool games.

        Nethack is very different, I expect, but great. You can even play it on public servers like alt.org and Hardfought
