Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup is a fun, free rogue-like game of exploration and treasure-hunting in dungeons filled with dangerous and unfriendly monsters in a quest for the mystifyingly fabulous Orb of Zot.
Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup is a variant of Linley's Dungeon Crawl that's openly developed and invites participation from the Crawl community.
Dungeon Crawl has superb, deep tactical gameplay, innovative magic and religion systems, and a grand variety of monsters to fight. Crawl is also one of the hardest roguelikes to beat. When you finally beat the game and write your victory post on rec.games.roguelike.misc, you know you've achieved something.

This game will make you hate
This game will make you hate anyone that is named Sigmund.
Well, i failed more to Orc Warrior than Sigmund
This time I killed sigmund after I grabbed the Orb... easy kill one stab, because my stealth even with Orb is uncannily stealthy rating.
With Stealth rating 5, you are very likely one hit sigmund without fight. Octopode berserker is the only character I sucessed escape with Orb.
My old character ogre was killed 4 times by Orc Warrior, 2 by Orc mage, 2 by Jelly, 2 by Orge. And killed Sigmund 10 times.
Developer entry is wrong
The original game Dungeon Crawl was written by Linley Henzell and its development ended in 2003.
Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup was formed to pull Dungeon Crawl out of ensorcelled hibernation, combines ideas from a new team of developers, the 4.1 alphas released by Brent Ross, and the community. It's the only branch actively developed to this day.
The current Stone Soup developers are listed here.
Graphic: ASCII via Console or Tiles via SDL/WebSocket
Game features: Singleplayer, Online or Offline
Game modes: Campaign, Sprint, Zot Defence
Cheers!

BTW: crawl monsters are stupid vs your summons, they just targeting on you as long as you keep out of their LOS, you are same. Let you minions deal with them. If not receiving feel a bit experienced then call another group of summon.
