Fastcrawl Now Available at Rampant Games
I talked a little about FastCrawl - the winner of the 2006 Indie RPG Award from Game Tunnel - a few weeks ago. In fact, it was (in part) what brought about my popular-yet-controversial "But Is It An RPG?" post. There were some arguments as to whether or not a good ol' fashioned dungeon crawl -- a hack-n-slash with old school sensibilities -- should still qualify as an RPG.

My answer is yes, though I admittedly have a tough time comparing a game like Aveyond to FastCrawl.

But if you are in the mood for some quick & dirty dungeon-delving, Fastcrawl is now available at Rampant Games:

It ain't deep, and it's not going to stress out pixel shaders on your GeForce card, but it is a lot of fun. It's sort of an abbreviated version of Rogue, playable in a single hour.

With the shortest game setting, you may be able to fit two or three games into your lunch hour (and still have time to eat). Give it a try!



(Warning - you WILL have to install .NET 1.1 or higher from Microsoft if you don't have it already.)
