Only if it was NetHack, he'd get to the end to find "The gold pieceA metal of characteristic yellow colour, the most precious
metal used as a common commercial medium of exchange. Symbol,
Au; at. no. 79; at. wt. 197.2. It is the most malleable
and ductile of all metals, and very heavy (sp. gr., 19.3).
It is quite unalterable by heat, moisture, and most
corrosive agents, and therefore well suited for its use in
coin and jewelry.

is actually a giantGiants have always walked the earth, though they are rare in
these times. They range in size from little over nine feet
to a towering twenty feet or more. The larger ones use huge
boulders as weapons, hurling them over large distances. All
types of giants share a love for men - roasted, boiled, or
fried. Their table manners are legendary.

mimicThe ancestors of the modern day chameleon, these creatures can
assume the form of anything in their surroundings. They may
assume the shape of objects or dungeon features. Unlike the
chameleon though, which assumes the shape of another creature
and goes in hunt of food, the mimic waits patiently for its
meals to come in search of it.

That summarizes the whole experience of the game in one comic.

Panel 1: Excitement
Panel 2: Determination
Panel 3: Frustration
Panel 4: Grit
Panel 5: Sense of Accomplishment
Panel 6: Agony

That's pretty much my range of emotion anytime I play.

Pretty funny, though as a non-native English speaker I found the interjections pretty weird before reading the comments.

As an English speaker, I can assure you that these interjections barely qualify as language. :)

Surely even Dudley must know that running around Gehennom without a lightStrange creatures formed from energy rather than matter,
lights are given to self-destructive behavior when battling
foes.

Man, this comic just doesn't appeal to me for some reason.

Yes yes, life is a ratRats are long-tailed rodents. They are aggressive,
omnivorous, and adaptable, often carrying diseases.

"The rat," said O'Brien, still addressing his invisible
audience, "although a rodent, is carnivorous. You are aware
of that. You will have heard of the things that happen in
the poor quarters of this town. In some streets a woman dare
not leave her baby alone in the house, even for five minutes.
The rats are certain to attack it. Within quite a small time
they will strip it to the bones. They also attack sick or
dying people. They show astonishing intelligence in knowing
when a human being is helpless."
