Zaiband is an Angband variant


Zaiband was forked from Angband 3.0.6 primarily to:

  • reimplement 4GAI
  • Do other AI repairs, including gradually restricting it to player-available information.
  • Prevent exploitative newbie deaths
  • Remove the "there is no way I should have survived that" experience.
