Nethack vultures-eye 1

Nethack is a very popular game amongst some techy groups. Normal Nethack is a text based game. However vultures-eye, adds some basic 3d isometric graphics to the game, making it more accessible to people.

As you explore, you come across, monsters and other residents in the dungeon, some are friendly others not so, you need to discover all this as you explore the many rooms, corridors in the game.
