Overview
Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup is a roguelike in which you explore a huge randomly generated dungeon , in a quest for the mystifyingly fabulous Orb of Zot. Stone Soup is an open source fork from Dungeon Crawl originally released by Linley Henzell in 1995 and is the only actively developed Crawl left. Dungeon Crawl features classic roguelike elements like permadeath, a constant need for food, and randomly generated dungeons. The name "Stone Soup" is a reference to the old folk story in which a stranger from out of town tricks the residents into cooking a pot of soup for him, by placing his supposedly magical stone in a pot of boiling water, attracting the attention of the townsfolk. The curious residents are now fooled one by one, into giving the stranger an ingredient for his "stone soup", which is the most remarkably tasty soup, but it just needs a little extra garnish each time a resident asks him what he is up. As a result, the entire village ends up cooperating on the "stone soup project", much like the open source community has with Dungeon Crawl. The game is free to download and can be played in the traditional ASCII format (non-graphical console) or in SDL format (graphical tiles).
