Ask HN: I love Nethack. Are there other great terminal games?

Ski is a super addictive SkiFree-like game for Terminal.

The SLASHEM variant of Nethack has a lot of added awesomeness - rolling a Doppelganger monk is particularly rockin'.

people seem to like dwarf fortress (http://www.bay12games.com/dwarves/). I do not get it, though.

We should write some...

hunt the wumpus ;)

the infocom stuff.

hhgttg and others.
