== Overview ==
The Ground Gives Way is a short, highly varying roguelike with lots of content. 
 
Main features:
* Characters will be very different from game to game since progress depends on what you happen to find.
* Progress is made through equipment, items and paid training rather than experience points.
* Hundreds of items, monsters, services, traps and features of different rarity that will make each game different from the last. No winner will look the same in TGGW.
* Rapidly increasing difficulty, there is no time to be bored.
* There is no grinding because there are no experience points or character levels.  Also, there is no hit point regeneration, so no tedious waiting.
* TGGW has a console-game like interface. No keys or commands to remember. Game play is still smooth and quick.
* Very short game time. The game could be completed within an hour. However, the difficulty increases very fast.
* Small levels, few levels, auto-running, a map system and a portal system makes quick and easy access through the dungeon.
* Interesting equipment choices where most items have pros and cons, very few trivial choices.
* Very simple to understand combat system.
