Cracks and Crevices is a graphical ascii roguelike game written by Stu, using SDL. It takes ideas from my other roguelikes like UnderDark and SRL.
The originaly idea was to keep things simple in order to create an actual working game instead of a huge mountain of ideas that never get implemented or see the light of day.
Its designed to not be so hardcore as NetHack and Crawl but not be as easy as Larn. It does provide help for the beginner and cue's when the game starts.
