7DRL Contest 2006

On February 25th, 2006, the dwellers of rec.games.roguelike.development were again challenged to write a new, complete, playable, roguelike in the scary span of just 168 hours. One full year had passed since the first time the brave ones challenged the myth. Thus it was that the second Seven Day Roguelike Challenge was announced.

Still, twenty brave souls dared to challenge the impossible. Of those, thirteen have provided proof of their heroic deed. All of them, however, should be honoured for having taken on this challenge.
