[[Lost_Labyrinth| Lost Labyrinth]] is a coffeebreak roguelike, designed to be played in 10 to 20 minutes.
[[NLarn]] is a rewrite of the classic Roguelike [[Larn]] from scratch. NLarn tries to maintain the atmosphere and story of the last version of Larn (12.3) while improving game-play and the user experience. Only a few of the additions of [[Ularn]] have been included.  


Some of its features are:
 
* immense number of character options/traits/skills.
Very noticeable differences to Larn so far include:  
* game focus on exploration instead of killing monsters; experience is gained by reaching a new dungeon level and consists of an increase in a character attribute chosen by the player.
* colour and effects
* labyrinthine structure of dungeon levels; only one "special" room per dungeon level, the rest consists of twisted mazes and hallways filled with monsters, traps and treasure.
* a real town
* recharge of hit points and mana is achieved by reaching special parts of the dungeon instead of resting.
* improved and simplified user interface
* multiplayer mode with up to 4 players on the same machine.
* extremely different item handling
