CryptRover was originally a [[7DRL]] completed just before the [[7DRL Contest 2008]]. An extended version is available from the [http://code.google.com/p/cryptrover/source/checkout subversion repository] and the [http://code.google.com/p/cryptrover/ official CryptRover website].<br />
<br />
In CryptRover, you play an archaeologist trapped in an underground crypt with a limited supply of air. You must survive long enough to reach the crypt's exit.<br />
<br />
* Be too rash - and the arachnids will nibble you to death.<br />
* Be too wary - and your air supply will run out. <br />
<br />
Luckily, the ancients have left behind med packs, air cans and batteries in the crypt which you can use to your benefit.<br />
<br />
The 7DRL version of Crypt Rover was the program of the week on [http://cymonsgames.retroremakes.com/cryptrover/ Cymon's Games] the week of 10 October 2008.</div>Cymonhttp://roguebasin.com/index.php?title=CryptRover&diff=17257CryptRover2009-04-16T15:35:39Z<p>Cymon: </p>

CryptRover was originally a [[7DRL]] completed just before the [[7DRL Contest 2008]]. An extended version is available from the [http://code.google.com/p/cryptrover/source/checkout subversion repository] and the [http://code.google.com/p/cryptrover/ official CryptRover website].<br />
<br />
In CryptRover, you play an archaeologist trapped in an underground crypt with a limited supply of air. You must survive long enough to reach the crypt's exit.<br />
<br />
* Be too rash - and the arachnids will nibble you to death.<br />
* Be too wary - and your air supply will run out. <br />
<br />
Luckily, the ancients have left behind med packs, air cans and batteries in the crypt which you can use to your benefit.<br />
<br />
The 7DRL version of Crypt Rover was the program of the week on [http://cymonsgames.retroremakes.com/cryptrover/ | Cymon's Games] the week of 10 October 2008.</div>Cymonhttp://roguebasin.com/index.php?title=The_Favored&diff=16497The Favored2009-03-30T04:10:18Z<p>Cymon: /* Review */</p>

<br />
The Favored combines Russian Roulette type game play with Robotfindskitten cleverness book ended with cute ASCII animations. The game revolves around a hero stuck in a rabbit's burrow. In order to get to the next level the hero builds a ladder out of the bones and sinews of slain rabbits. However, unknown to the hero one of the rabbits on each level is favored of the rabbit gods. Attempting to kill this one will result in the hero being smitten by a lightning bolt. The probability of picking a favored rabbit in any encounter is displayed on the screen, 1 out of however many rabbits there are. As you slay rabbits the game keeps track of your cumulative probability and displays it when you are smitten to death or survive at the end of each game.<br />
<br />
The game's kill messages are stored in the file killmsgs.txt and range from clever pop references to grotesque descriptions of deaths. [[User:Cymon | The author]] has encouraged users to edit this file to their liking and send any changes to him for inclusion in future distributions.</div>Cymonhttp://roguebasin.com/index.php?title=User:Cymon&diff=16496User:Cymon2009-03-30T04:08:29Z<p>Cymon: </p>
