[[Broken Bottle]] is set in a post-apocalyptic world, following an alcoholic with a murky past as he tries to ascend to the surface.  
[[Quickband]] is a variant by [[Antoine]]. It is a variant of [[NPPAngband]] (by Jeff Greene and Diego Gonzalez), which in turn is a variant of [[Angband]].  


The game has a grim and dark theme, with story elements revealed through game progression, and through hallucinations or dreams induced by alcoholic abuse or withdrawal.
The aim of Quickband is to descend to the 12th level of the dungeon and slay the evil wizard Saruman of Many Colors. Quickband is intended to be much quicker to complete than regular Angband (which has 100 dungeon levels). In fact you should be able to play a full game in just a few hours.
 
Alcohol is a core element of the game - living without it is difficult, as it highly replenishes stamina which is used up in melee (fighting on very low stamina will make you miss most of the time).  
 
There are also withdrawal effects if you go without for a long time.
