You are a lone outsider in a strange, non-Euclidean world. You can
move with the numpad, vi keys (hjklyubn), or mouse. You can also
skip turns by pressing ".".

As a Rogue, your goal is to collect as many treasures as possible.
However, collecting treasures attracts dangerous monsters (on the
other hand, killing the monsters allows more treasures to be
generated).

You can kill most monsters by moving into them. Similarly, if the
monster was next to you at the end of your turn, it would kill you.
The game protects you from getting yourself killed accidentally by
ignoring moves which lead to instant death (similar to the check
rule from Chess).

Ultimately, you will probably run into a situation where monsters
surround you. That means that your adventure is over, and you will
have to teleport back to the Euclidean world to survive by pressing
Escape (quit).

Collecting enough treasure also allows you to find rare magical
orbs, which grant you one-time or time-limited special abilities.
