Enjoy your kill X monsters quests

It's worth installing just for the opening cinematic. Seriously, it will take 5 minutes to download it (it's REALLY well compressed) and run - just check out how beautiful the first map is, and you'll see why folks are willing to put up with a few boring initial 'kill x monsters' :D

Incidentally, what's your favourite quest in a roguelike? Would have thought ADOM's various questlines would have it down pat, although even there you have plenty of 'kill x' - never 'kill 10 of x', but certainly there's a few 'go kill a [insert monster here], then there's the arena, the vaults and so on. If you can give an idea of what roguelikes you're into, it will be easier to work out whether this will appeal.

You forgot about Old Barbarian's quest, mentioned earlier ;)
