Appears to be the best classic open source roguelike of the 2020's.
This website is really cool! crawl.akrasiac.org:8080/#lobby You can spectate players live and chat! Also has statistics.
Devs of this game are smart, they have one good in-tree tileset, unlike some other text-based games that didn't have an in-tree option...
